Trends, Challenges and Strategies – 19th
August 2015
Department of Commerce has organized an International Conference on Corporate
Sustainability to provide the platform to explore the trends, challenges, strategies and benefits of
corporate sustainable practices. Corporate Sustainability is a new and evolving corporate
management paradigm. It is an essential ingredient for a company’s long term success and is a
business approach that creates long term shareholder value by embracing opportunities and
managing risks derived from economic environment and social development. It helps to set out
the areas that companies should focus such as economic, social, and economic performance. To
meet today’s sustainability’s challenges proactive measure by the business sector is necessary.
Unfortunately in many contexts, unsustainable and inequitable business practices are
perpetuated by a lack of economic incentive to curb those practices or an inability among stake
holders to differentiate between good and bad corporate performers. The present corporate
scenario and the need to look into future perspectives have stimulated to call for discussion and
disseminate knowledge on corporate sustainability. This conference provided a platform to
explore the trends, challenges, strategies and benefits of corporate sustainable practices. 26
persons from various colleges presented papers.
