Sony Group companies in Japan and overseas hold exhibitions and events for employees that introduce Sony's environmental initiatives at sites across the country. Sony Corporation holds a regular "Environment Management Meeting," which is attended by top management, including Sony's President, and provides an opportunity for Sony executives to share information about important group-wide issues related to the environment. Sony also holds an annual "Environmental Symposium" for regular employees with the aim of ensuring common awareness of environmental issues. The 2010 symposium included a heated debate about environmentally conscious products. Sony also organizes similar symposia overseas.
