Corporate Citizenship and Commercial Success


Corporate Counsel Business Journal is proud to announce ESG In Action! Corporate Citizenship and Commercial Success,  A half-day virtual event on June 2, 2021. Our subject matter experts will speak to key issues and developments surrounding accountability, enforcement, investment and innovation.

Leading law departments and law firms are at the center of how many organizations self-assess and refine both their focus and resources related to ESG initiatives. Learn from industry experts about how to identify key metrics that shape and monitor corporate ESG programs - and how to integrate these priorities into your organization’s culture.

This is not an instance of “wait and see,” but the opportunity to hear leaders speak to their challenges, risks and solutions within their ESG programs.

Accreditation:  CLE credits will be applied for immediately following the event to the following states: AL, AZ, CA, CT, GA, IL, MN, MO, NC, NJ, NY, RI, TN, TX, and WI. Please be sure to fill in your state and bar number in the post-event survey. For questions, please contact Jennifer Coniglio, jconiglio@ccbjournal.com.
