About the Event:

As part of the Corporate Purpose pillar of ECGI’s Responsible Capitalism initiative, this 3-day event brought together academic scholars, and business leaders to address the central questions relating to corporate purpose and capitalism more broadly. Following a workshop on corporate purpose designed for young scholars on the first day, there was a conference with five sessions to consider different perspectives of corporate purpose. The final day included the ECGI General Assembly meeting, the 2023 Wallenberg Lecture, working paper prizes and a session on corporate purpose in practice. The ECGI Annual dinner took place on Thursday 21 September.
