2020 Page International Exchange
Our second annual Page International Exchange brought together Page and Page Up leaders and invited guests from across the globe to examine the future of the Communications function. Attendees exchanged knowledge, shared and learned from leading experts and each other on topics impacting our members and their teams – with this year’s conference focused on corporate citizenship. There were also plenty of opportunities for networking and conversation, both hallmarks of Page events.
Throughout, we explored our conference theme: The New Paradigm of Corporate Citizenship.
Leaders of all kinds and around the world are insisting that corporations must focus more on their broader role in the world. Stakeholders increasingly expect businesses to create not only customer and shareholder value but societal value as well. These demands come not just from civil society activists. Customers factor them into purchase decisions, and employees consider them when deciding where to work. And, increasingly, investors are focused on corporate purpose and basing investment decisions on a company’s ability to produce sustainable value over the long-term. These are central themes of the 2019 Page report, The CCO as Pacesetter. In Abu Dhabi we dove into this new world with a wealth of thought leaders, case studies and discussions on the implications for corporations, their stakeholders, and their CCOs.
2019 Page International Exchange
The inaugural Page International Exchange focused on existential disruption and attendees heard from European leaders, CEOs and CCOs on how industry leaders in the region are managing a time of turbulent change in both business and communication. We’ll also discuss how the Page model driving change within organizations, in terms of the role of corporate brand, culture change, digital disruption, and corporate purpose.
2019 Page Spring Seminar
This year’s Spring Seminar comes at a moment of truth for the Chief Communications Officer.

2018 Page Annual Conference
The pressure on companies, and specifically their CEOs and CCOs, to engage with their publics on a range of social issues – from climate change to privacy, from immigration to gun control, from gay rights to racial bias – is more intense than ever. How do you determine if, when and how to engage?
2018 Page Spring Seminar
“When we started to think about the theme for this Spring Seminar, we heard from many of you that we really needed to shake things up and use this time to learn things that might be new to our thinking. Companies have been transformed or disrupted. Many have turned to design thinking to infuse their thinking about the future.
2017 Page Annual Conference
