SUMMIT 2017 AGENDA & PARTICIPANTS #AIFirstMovers @AspenBizSociety October 19 - 22, 2017 | Chicago, Illinois The Aspen Institute Business & Society Program acknowledges the generous support of our sponsors in making the 2017 First Movers Summit possible. Aligning Business with the Long-Term Health of Society The Aspen Institute Business and Society Program, founded in 1998, works with business executives and scholars to align business decisions and investments with the long-term health of society—and the planet. Through carefully designed networks, working groups and focused dialogue, the Program identifies and inspires thought leaders and intrapreneurs to challenge conventional ideas about capitalism and markets, to test new measures of business success, and to connect classroom theory and business practice. THE FIRST MOVERS SUMMIT: Since 2012, the Aspen Institute Business and Society Program has hosted Summits for First Mover Fellows, colleagues and invited experts from the fields of design thinking, leadership, corporate responsibility, innovation, sustainability and more. The Summits provide business leaders with a platform to gain the tools, skills and network they need to drive innovations that increase business value and make the world a better place. THE FELLOWSHIP NETWORK: First Movers is the leading global network of corporate social intrapreneurs. Fellows are accomplished innovators inside companies who are creating new products, services and management practices that deliver financial value to their companies and positive social and environmental outcomes for the world. THE SUMMIT GOALS: • Connect: Build lasting bonds across the classes of Fellows and network with other experts in social intrapreneurship. • Collaborate: Explore how Fellows working on similar challenges can share insights and work together for greater impact. • Learn: Reinforce skills acquired in First Movers seminars and gain new ones. Find answers to current challenges by engaging in dialogue with peers, business leaders and academic experts. • Inspire: Gain the courage, motivation and support you need to grow personally and professionally. • Envision: Take time to reflect, prioritize and plan. Think deeply about the future of your career, your industry and the world. 2017 First Movers Summit 1 AGENDA THURSDAY, OCTOBER 19 | First Mover Fellows Only 12:00 – 4:00 pm Storytelling for Influence Workshop with The Second City Blackout Theatre | The Second City, 1616 N Wells Street, Chicago, IL 60614 Learn the principles of storytelling from the experts at The Second City, the world’s pre-eminent school for improvisa- tion!
