Why CEOs Attend
The Institute’s semi-annual CEO Conference attracts top corporate and foundation leaders for insights and dialogue around CSR. Attendees have the opportunity to make connections, collaborate, and network with likeminded leaders. Satell Institute events are extremely valuable for both experienced CEOs and those who are newer to CSR.
Peer-to-Peer Roundtables – A SI Hallmark
The much-anticipated hallmark of each Satell Institute conference is the private CEO peer-to-peer discussion groups that follow the presentation. These exclusive CEO roundtables provide candid and unique idea exchange on CSR best practices, benefits, and challenges. CEO participants continuously rank these discussions highly, citing the invaluable practical and timely takeaways which inspire effective and efficient real-world strategies for positive growth and community impact.
As always, there is no charge to attend, but attendees must be a CEO or equivalent and invited by an existing Satell Institute Member.
