On October 14-15, 2010, “A Workshop on Integrated Reporting: Frameworks and Action Plan” was held at the Harvard Business School. The workshop was sponsored by the Business & Environment Initiative. Robert G. Eccles was the workshop chairman. For two days, over 100 of the world’s leading authorities on corporate disclosure discussed the concept of integrated reporting, what its contribution could be to creating a more sustainable society, and what must be done to ensure its rapid and broad adoption in a high quality way. The workshop participants included people from a wide range of countries and representing virtually every group that has a stake in integrated reporting and can help to make it happen: companies, analysts and investors, NGOs, regulators and standard setters, accounting firms, technology and data vendors, academics, students and civil society. An Executive Summary of the workshop is available online, as well as a compilation of the workshop papers, The Landscape of Integrated Reporting: Reflections and Next Steps.
