2022 Corporate Governance Symposium

The John L. Weinberg Center for Corporate Governance and the Department of Finance at the Lerner College of Business & Economics, at the University of Delaware, will host an in-person Academic Symposium in collaboration with the European Corporate Governance Institute (ECGI) on Friday, 11 March 2022.

The Symposium will focus on ESG-related topics (broadly defined) and include about 8 papers, two of which will be selected to each receive the 2022 John L. Weinberg/IRRCi Research Paper Award and a $10,000 prize. Details of last year’s programme and award winners are available here.

This research competition is the successor to the IRRCi Investor Research Paper Award, which had become a prominent award garnering significant attention amongst the investment community, academia and policymakers. The John L. Weinberg/IRRCi Research Paper Award, as its predecessor did, highlights innovative research.
