From 5 to 8 June, over 100 scholars from all over the world will gather in Milan to discuss social and environmental dimensions of sustainable business

The fourteenth annual research conference of the Alliance for Research on Corporate Sustainability (ARCS) will bring together scholars that study corporate sustainability from different social science disciplinary angles and through a variety of methodological approaches.

The academic conference will be held on June 5-8, 2022 and will be hosted by the Invernizzi Center for Research on Innovation, Organization, Strategy and Entrepreneurship (ICRIOS) at Bocconi University, in Milan, Italy.

"We are delighted to host the ARCS 14th annual research conference at Bocconi. Sustainability has always been, and is increasingly, a central topic for Bocconi. The university's commitment on such issues is also fueled through research and initiatives like this one. In fact, the conference brings together leading scholars from a variety of disciplines interested in advancing research on corporate sustainability strategy and management," says Anne Jacqueminet, Conference Chair.

The event will be mainly on-site, gathering over a hundred scholars from different parts of the world in via Sarfatti 10, Milan. In details, on June 5, 2022 will be held a workshop dedicated to Ph.D. students, who have submitted a paper to ARCS and had it accepted. The main conference will start on June 6, 2022, offering a program with a variety of formats: panel discussions, regular paper presentations, research sketches, and networking and social opportunities.

The conference organizing committee is formed by Stefano Breschi (Director of ICRIOS), Nilanjana Dutt (Vice-director of ICRIOS), Carlotta Milani (ICRIOS) and scholars of Bocconi's Department of Management and Technology, including Charles Williams, Stefano Pogutz, Nicola Misani and Navya Pandit (PhD student).
