Working in Partnership with the United Nations to Create Sustainable Markets

In an increasingly interconnected world, companies face an ever-widening array of material risks and opportunities in the environmental, social, and governance realms. Companies that proactively address these issues through the implementation of corporate citizenship and multi-stakeholder partnerships are better positioned to generate long-term value, while at the same time delivering benefits to society. The United Nations Global Compact Leaders Summit-the largest event ever convened by the United Nations on the topic of corporate citizenship-will equip leaders from all sectors with the strategic intelligence, resources, and tools they need to create value in the broadest sense.
