Society for Corporate Governance National Conference 2026

We're pleased to sponsor the Society for Corporate Governance's 2026 National Conference July 7-10 in Nashville, TN. The Society’s National Conference is the premier annual governance event in the U.S., with compelling programming and a unique opportunity to connect with peers, corporate directors, investors and other experts in the governance field.

This year’s National Conference will celebrate the corporate governance professionals who foster harmony in their organizations, orchestrating balance among diverse perspectives, priorities, and pressures, and enabling a range of voices to be heard in achieving a unified purpose: advancing their organization’s strategy in a world defined by complexity and constant change. 

On July 10, Hasib Nasirullah, Global Co-Head of Sustainability at Sodali & Co, will join a panel of industry peers for a session to explore how organizations decide what issues to prioritize and how to convey an effective story despite external market pressures. See below for the session details. 

12:10 pm - 1:00 pm EDT - Voluntary Sustainability Reporting

Against a fragmented and sometimes unfavorable legal and regulatory environment, companies continue to report on sustainability. Learn how companies are deciding whether to continue reporting, what issues to focus on, how to present information in a compelling (and compliant) manner, and what language to use to convey your specific story in a way that is authentic, reliable, and effective.
