The Business Roundtable
The Business Roundtable is an influential association of CEOs from major U.S. companies. Founded in 1972, it aims to promote a thriving economy and advocate for policies that support business growth and competitiveness. The organization focuses on various issues, including trade, education, and workforce development. In 2019, it reshaped its mission to emphasize a commitment to all stakeholders—customers, employees, suppliers, communities, and shareholders—rather than solely prioritizing shareholder profit. This shift reflects a broader understanding of corporate responsibility in today’s economy.
