Founded last fall, the Global Business Forum is an initiative designed to bring together thought leaders and practitioners from industry, government, and academia to discuss the critical issues of the day that will impact international business – and the world – both today and tomorrow. The Forum aims to help today's and tomorrow’s leaders of society – such as SKEMA students – be better informed about these major topics and be able to better navigate them.
