NEW YORK, Sept. 22, 2023 - The Fortune CEO Initiative (CEOI) annual meeting will convene at The Park Hyatt in Washington, D.C. on October 3, attended by some of the nation's top business and governmental leaders. Fortune's CEOI is a community of chief executives committed to balancing corporate profitability with sustainable social and environmental practices. This year's program is supported by partners AARP, Alight, Bristol Myers Squibb and Toptal.
It's a new era of leadership, as CEOs are called upon to lead with greater empathy and agility, while managing multiple stakeholders and the greater demand for innovation. From issues ranging across economic uncertainty, ESG backlash, mounting geopolitical tensions or harnessing advances in technologies to create new business models, this timely annual meeting will address changing dynamics through high-impact, face to face discussion and thought leadership.
"The Fortune CEO Initiative was created six years ago to provide business leaders a forum for sharing ideas on how to improve their positive impact on society," said Alan Murray, CEO of Fortune Media. "These purpose-driven companies are at the very forefront of the movement toward stakeholder capitalism, determined to prove they can do good by doing well. At Fortune, we are proud to host them."
