Join us to explore how businesses can help protect and strengthen the democratic institutions we all rely on.
About this Event

Our communities and businesses depend on strong democratic foundations. Yet, across the country, important questions are being raised about the health of these foundations, including independent courts, a free press, and opportunities for civic participation.

Join us for an in-person, nonpartisan conversation with Boston-area business and civic leaders about how the private sector can help protect and strengthen democracy.

We’ll highlight inspiring partnerships already making a difference — including the powerful two-way connection between democracy and sustainability. A few local leaders will spark the conversation, then we’ll open it up for an interactive discussion where everyone can share ideas and perspectives.

Whether you represent small or large businesses, government, or civil society, meet others who care about these issues, and help explore how business can play a constructive role in strengthening democracy. You can expect good conversation, fresh perspectives, and the chance to connect over refreshments.

This event is co-hosted by the Boston Area Sustainability Group (BASG), Sustainable Business Network (SBN), Trillium Asset Management, and the American Sustainable Business Network (ASBN). It takes place alongside ASBN’s national virtual conference Business, Policy and Purpose (conference participants attend free!)

👉 Reserve your spot today — we can’t wait to see you there.

(Note : if you are interested in also attending ASBN's virtual 3-day conference, they are offering 15% off to our Boston community - use LOCAL15OFF as a discount code - in addition to 50% off through October 20th - use discount code JOINASBN50PERCENT).
