Fortune’s annual CEO Initiative returns for its third incarnation!
We’ll kick things off on Monday, June 10 in New York City, where we will convene corporate leaders who are committed to addressing major social problems as part of their core business strategies.
The initiative grew out of an historic meeting of 100 CEOs with Pope Francis at the Vatican in December 2016, and is based on a belief that infusing broader purpose into corporate strategies has become increasingly important in attracting and motivating talent, deepening bonds with consumers, steadying corporate reputation in an era of declining trust, and preserving a well-functioning society in a time of political tumult.
During the conference, a livestream on this page will feature many of the program’s sessions. See the abridged version of the agenda below with sessions to be streamed; please note all times are in Eastern Time. (The complete agenda includes several sessions that will not be streamed.
