IR Magazine and Corporate Secretary Join Together to Present the Upcoming ESG Integration Forum
IR Magazine and Corporate Secretary join forces to present the fourth annual ESG Integration Forum as a virtual event on December 1 and 2, featuring investors, analysts, governance, sustainability, and financial professionals.
October 15, 2021 /3BL Media/ - IR Magazine and Corporate Secretary are bringing the ESG Integration Forum back as a virtual event for the fourth year in a row. The two-day event will bring together governance, investor relations and sustainability professionals to develop an integrated approach when responding to investor expectations around ESG factors.
The format, far removed from a traditional webinar, consists of panel discussions, live speaker Q&A, 1-to-1 networking, virtual roundtable discussions, fireside chats and more.
Discussions at the forum range from trends and regulatory changes to best practices on planning an ESG program for the year ahead. Investors, analysts, issuers will discuss the impact of looming ESG disclosure regulation, the building momentum of auditing ESG data, and the role of companies and their boards when responding to increased expectations around diversity and net-zero.
“This year, we have seen ESG activism, momentum building regarding policy on sustainability, new diversity requirements for public companies and increased focus on net-zero commitments. It’s safe to say this year has been like no other for the ESG movement. The ESG integration forum is the only event that brings together the key functions within a public company to tackle the challenges in this rapidly developing space. We believe that businesses don’t operate in silos, and neither should our events!” – Steven Wade, head of event content, IR Magazine and Corporate Secretary.
Attendees will include investors, analysts and publicly listed companies from across the US and Canada. The ticket prices are currently US$245 and are available for purchase on the event website. The conference has many prominent partners supporting the event and providing expertise, including 3BL, Corbin Advisors, Cowen and Company, DFIN, Diligent, Fortis, IHS Markit, Merchant Cantos, Nasdaq, Okapi Partners, OneTrust ESG, Q4 and Workiva.

Corporate Secretary was founded in 2002 to help corporate secretaries and other governance professionals develop a deeper understanding of their roles and become more effective in them at a time when publicly listed companies’ regulatory compliance requirements began to escalate amid a series of high-profile corporate accounting scandals.
Corporate Secretary is independently owned and today continues to serve a vital role in highlighting the achievements and expertise of a group of people who work outside the spotlight and are often isolated as the only individuals in their organizations focusing on these complex matters.
