Join professors, researchers, and students in Crossing Disciplinary & Geographical Borders to Advance Research on B Corps. This event is free for all B Academics members and $10 for students.
Certified B Corporations and Benefit Corporations (B Corps) have become a global phenomenon, 15 years in the making. The ideals and attributes of B Corps have attracted researchers worldwide in a range of disciplines such as accounting, economics, entrepreneurship, ethics, finance, law, marketing, sociology, and political science.
To reflect the increasing plurality and vitality of studies in this area, the theme of this year’s workshop is cross-disciplinary, global, academic conversations. Through this effort, B Academics aims to showcase the dynamic research terrain, strengthen works in progress, and foster the generation of research ideas and collaboration opportunities.
This Research Roundtable will be held via a virtual platform on September 29, 2021, featuring a keynote speech, an information-sharing session with B Lab, a panel discussion, a paper showcase session, and breakout group discussion sessions. We will facilitate pre-meeting and after-meeting participant engagements including conducting peer reviews and exchanges of ideas and information.
