Aspen Institute Business & Society Summit
Where leaders gather for dialogue and learning
July 12-15, 2027 | Aspen, CO
Every July, the Aspen Institute Business & Society Program draws together 200+ leaders for the Business & Society Summit, an invitation-only immersive gathering at the frontier of business leadership. The program is designed as a dialogue among corporate executives along with long-term investors, corporate governance experts, academic luminaries, NGO leaders, and strategic advisors.
Changes to “business-as-usual” are accumulating at a rapid pace, as firms are challenged to redesign everything from supply chains to communication priorities to financial and reporting strategies. Organizations must develop new capabilities to accelerate sustainable innovation, rethinking how to engage customers, suppliers, employees and wider stakeholders.
Through idea exchange and working sessions, the Summit engages thoughtful influencers to examine these emergent issues, evolve the narrative and practice surrounding sustainability and social impact, and build greater trust in the business sector to align with the long-term health of society.
If you are a senior sustainability strategist at a large public company, a long-term investor, or an NGO leader focused on corporate governance, and are interested in reviewing the attendance criteria and requesting an invitation for the 2027 event, please contact us.
Note: due to overwhelming interest, we are enforcing strict criteria for consideration and are unable to extend additional invitations to business advisors or start up enterprises.
