BREAKOUT SESSION ACTIVATING BRAND PURPOSE

Build Brands That Champion Equity & Justice and Addressing the Missing Role of Mental Health

Equity and justice came to sharp focus after the racial reckoning of 2020, as every company begins/continues their journey leaning into equity and grapples with what that means for their brand(s). Companies behind four household brand names - Kate Spade New York, Vans, Zoom, and Alaska Airlines - are in different stages of their own journey, but share one thing in common: their unwavering commitment to equity & justice. This panel discussion will showcase the authentic work these companies are doing to build their brands to champion equity and justice.
