Innovating Equity Summit
PRESENTED BY
ABOUT
The Silicon Valley Leadership Group (SVLG) proudly presents its inaugural Innovating Equity Summit, a conference featuring artistic performances, cross-sector conversations with executives, and interactive breakout sessions focused on sustaining equitable business practices across our organizations. Equity-focused discussions take many directions because we use the same terms, but in different ways. To advance Equity, we need to name it, frame it, and explain it. While “Equity” is synonymous with fairness and justice in legal systems, how does that translate into corporate environments? In business, “Equity” is the ownership of the asset of value, distributed across shareholders. The Innovating Equity Summit will look at the strategies being used to address racial equity across business communities. Establishing a shared language to present data, describe conditions, and take action, SVLG brings the Innovating Equity Summit to engage in learning and storytelling on moving this work forward. Representing hundreds of global brands, join us to hear speakers, participate in panel discussions, and watch performances at our inaugural event this fall.
