IESE Students Present the DGDW at the 6th Annual EABIS Colloquium to Great Success

On September 20, 2007 three IESE full-time MBA students presented the Doing Good and Doing Well Conference at the 6th Annual European Academy of Business in Society Colloquium. Ranjeet Kapur, Elliott Gansner and Tammy M from Canada presented the conference as part of the 3rd EABIS Corporate Responsibility Education & Training Exchange. The theme of the event was "Executive Education, In-Company Training, and the Changing Role of Business in Society” and the objective was to share innovative ideas that are helping to mainstream corporate responsibility into the education of business leaders.

The DGDW was the only initiative being presented that actively engages full-time MBA students and challenges them to think critically about the responsibility of business to society and the environment. The majority of the other initiatives presented were either research based or focused on working with businesses and/or executives. The students are therefore very proud of their initiative and they are looking forward to the 5th Annual DGDW that will be held on February 29th and March 1st, 2008 and supported by the IESE Platform for Strategy and Sustainability (IPSS).
