Such impactful partnerships drive career advancement, offer lifelong engagement opportunities, and shape the field of IR. To this end, SIR is pleased to announce the launch of the C3 (Corporate Change Champions) initiative, a multi-pronged program designed to support underrepresented SIR members seeking corporate partnership opportunities. |
