We are delighted to announce that this autumn Virtus Global Center for Corporate Governance together with The University of Naples “Parthenope” and Sapienza University of Rome are going to organise an international conference, titled “NEW CHALLENGES IN CORPORATE GOVERNANCE: THEORY AND PRACTICE”.

The conference will take place in Naples (Italy) on October 3-4, 2019.

Prof. Salvatore Esposito De Falco, Prof. Federico Alvino and Prof. Alexander Kostyuk will co-chair of the conference.

The aim of this conference is to move the field closer to a global theory by advancing our understanding of corporate governance, which combines insights from the literature on firm governance bundles with insights from the national governance systems literature, investigating new perspectives and challenges for corporate governance and outlining possible scenarios of its development.

The key topics are available following the link.
