Comments from the Aspen Institute
“Congratulations! The meeting in Aspen was a great success. What a terrific group of academics and practitioners you managed to bring together. With all the recruiting we do, we know how hard it is to get the right people in the room. So we commend you for convening this impressive group. There seemed to be real energy for moving forward, and we are eager to work with you to make sure we continue the momentum.”

Comments from practitioner participants
“I wanted to thank you for such a terrific event in Aspen! The conversation, food, wine and altitude kept my head spinning for days! Since I've returned, I've been inspired to think deeper about the task here at Frito-Lay and the opportunity for impact within our company and more broadly for the community at large.”

“I found the conference useful and it is always good to mix the academic and practitioner points of view. I enjoyed meeting your colleagues who were both fun and stimulating. I am particularly interested in the confluence of brand and reputation and the evolving notion that business has a role to play in society that heretofore was informal but becoming more formal.”
