Notably, the EU Commission has already praised the project findings as an excellent contribution to the business- relevant European knowledge base on CSR.

The conference will also feature the international launch of the second EABIS - Ethical Corporation Special Issue on Corporate Responsibility and Education. Building on the highly successful 2006 project, this year's publication focuses exclusively on the 'state of the art' in executive education, and how business school innovation is keeping pace with corporate progress.
We are delighted to add that both Microsoft International President Jean-Philippe Courtois and INSEAD Executive Education Director Luk van Wassenhove will add expert perspectives during the session. More detailed information will follow from EABIS before the end of this week.
