Sustaining Momentum and Responsible Growth
When: Thursday 13 March 2008 to Friday 14 March 2008
Where: Chatham House, London, UK
At their 2007 Summit, the G8 nations signalled an unprecedented interest in corporate responsibility. Not only did they encourage the business sector to use specific Corporate Responsibility instruments, such as the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises and the UN Global Compact, but they committed to establishing a high level dialogue with leading emerging economies on the subject. What are the emerging governmental expectations of the business sector, and how far are these fair and reasonable?
Is government trying to play 'catch-up' with a sector that is already leading across a broad front?
If so, what support for Corporate Responsibility is it most important for government to give at this point?
This high-level conference is now in its fifth successive year as a joint venture between Chatham House and FTSE Group. The two day event will examine the latest thinking on the responsibilities of business, government and civil society and assess how far corporate responsibility has become a normal part of everyday business.
