How A Focus on CSR and ESG Drives Brand Value

The way we look at corporate governance has been rapidly evolving over the last several years, capped by BlackRock CEO Larry Fink’s recent annual letter to CEOs, titled “A Sense of Purpose.” Given this backdrop, how can corporate responsibility and a focus on ESG issues drive brand value for companies? We’ll look at this from a brand value and share-price perspective, as well as other angles that come to light from our diverse and expert panel – and in conversation with you, our engaged audience! Come away from the session with a stronger sense of the relationships between investor ESG pressure, reputational risk and opportunity, ESG topic materiality, sustainability strategy, and corporate and brand equity.
