    Dear All,

    We are delighted to announce our forthcoming ESRC seminar on the topic: 'Corporate Social Responsibility among SMEs from emerging/developing economies: Comparative perspectives on CSR among SMEs' taking place on Wednesday 30 April 2014, 11am-5pm, at Middlesex University, Hendon campus, The Barn.

    This ESRC-funded seminar symposium brings together key researchers to consider developed country versus emerging/developing country perspectives on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) among small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Are there, for example, differences between developed and emerging/developing economies in terms of SME motivations for doing CSR, obstacles to doing CSR, relevant supporting institutions, regulations or cultural traditions?

    Dima Jamali, American University of Beirut, Lebanon
    Søren Jeppesen, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark
    Bobby Banerjee, Cass Business School, City University London, UK
    Kenneth Amaeshi, University of Edinburgh, UK
