HYAnnual Corporate Governance Conference in Armenia−2023
Collaboration for Sustainable Corporate Governance
The Conference aims to provide a platform for the business world, policymakers, academic and civil society organizations, and international expert community to comprehend the main challenges and opportunities of modern trends in sustainable corporate governance, learn from each other’s experience, and outline the main directions of development.
