All of the seven occasions will be “hosted by City & State Reports”, these programmes are to take place throughout the year of 2015. These will also be a way to showcase the “best examples of CSR” that take place within the region of New York. In fact, the C.E.O cum the president of New York’s “City & State”, Tom Allon, who also co-founded the “City & State Reports” attach a great importance to CSR activities, whereby he said:
