Registration for the BSR Conference 2020, taking place live October 20-23, is open.
This year, we will convene our community at a moment of tremendous uncertainty and turbulence, and driven by a common task: to find solutions to the problems of the present, while laying the groundwork to build a truly equitable, resilient and just future for all.
BSR20 will build on the growing momentum our members and partners have achieved together over the last decade, while delving deep into the considerable work ahead of us.
Our theme this year is “Meet the Moment. Build the Future.” As we come together for three days of substantive and actionable discussions, we are all dealing with the urgent need to address the unprecedented economic and public health challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic; and the tragic reminder of the systemic barriers and racial injustice that still plague society.
Business has taken many encouraging steps to bolster public health, to enable immediate relief for people who have lost jobs since the pandemic hit, and to address the need for truly diverse and inclusive workplaces and equitable economic opportunity. It is also essential that we stay focused on delivering on long-term goals to transition to net-zero carbon and achieve the SDGs. Our agenda will highlight how companies have shifted into high gear; and what we must do to ensure these efforts are strengthened and taken to scale.

While we would much prefer to gather in person, we are excited to shift to a digital, virtual experience that will connect our global community, bring new voices to the fore, and facilitate new partnerships and initiatives.
Our virtual event gives us the added benefit of convening a truly global conversation, spanning multiple time zones and regions, and delivered via broadcast-quality streaming video, which will be recorded and available on demand to registered participants for a full year. Plenaries, breakout sessions, and networking events will take place in small blocks of time per day by region, allowing you to tune in live without missing an entire day of work.
We will share more information about our virtual event, online networking opportunities, and the full agenda over the coming weeks and months. We look forward to “seeing you” in October!
