In board rooms and strategy sessions, budget meetings and corporate goals, ESG efforts are finally getting the attention they deserve. But while frameworks are emerging to benchmark and evaluate environmental and governance outcomes, social— the “S” in ESG — feels more ambiguous.
Join Life Science Cares as we convene industry practitioners and other social impact stakeholders to share best practices and begin to co-create an industry toolkit for strategically incorporating socially conscientious and community-oriented practices into your business.
This inaugural half-day conference will feature panel discussions, a breakout group activity and a keynote by Moderna Executive Director of Communications Kate O’Malley. The event will close with an opportunity to network over drinks and appetizers.
