I’m happy to share that we’ll be hosting our 1st Annual Practical ESG Conference this fall – presented by CCRcorp’s newest membership resource, PracticalESG.com. The 1st Annual Practical ESG Conference will deliver usable, practical guidance on hot ESG topics, in a candid and conversational format. Join recognized ESG practitioners from legal, accounting/auditing and in-house corporate backgrounds to stay ahead of reputational risks, stakeholder demands and regulatory initiatives – and get meaningful pointers to design, implement and improve corporate ESG programs. Check out the agenda – and know that we’ll be adding even more content & detail as the event gets closer.

This year’s event is fully virtual and will occur on Tuesday, October 11th, which is the day before we kick off our pair of Proxy Disclosure and 19th Annual Executive Compensation Conferences. The Conferences will be held virtually October 12th – 14th and are also now open for registration. Our agendas are set up to help you tackle shareholder proposals, regulatory & investor scrutiny, executive pay expectations, and difficult board oversight issues.

As a special “thank you” for early registration, we’re offering an “early bird” rate for a limited time for the 1st Annual Practical ESG Conference as well as the Proxy Disclosure and 19th Annual Executive Compensation Conferences.
