The Publishing House Virtus Interpress together with Virtus Global Center for Corporate Governance are delighted to announce that on June 4, 2026 the international online conference titled “Corporate Governance: Theory and the Best Practices” will be held.

The event will be a platform for sharing ideas on theoretical and practical sides of modern corporate governance. The conference will be devoted to a variety of crucial issues of corporate governance, i.e., earnings management, corporate control, audit, executive compensation, financial reporting, disclosure and transparency issues, shareholder rights, etc. The main goal of the conference is to investigate the above-mentioned themes and to invoke discussion of them that is a major value of the scholarly research.
