Beyond Capitalism Debate Series - Part 1

Is shareholder primacy compatible with addressing existential threats to humanity such as climate change?

Shareholder primacy has dominated corporate governance for half a century. Can it address existential threats like climate change—or does it accelerate them? Hosted by the new Beyond Capitalism Club, Haas Finance Club, and the Center for Responsible Business, this in-person debate will draw on expertise from across the campus and beyond. We invite your curiosity to question and openness to learn about the tenets of our current economic structure.

Lunch will be provided. Please also register on Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/beyond-capitalism-debate-series-tickets-1972831930411?aff=oddtdtcreator
