CBS Business Connect: Leading entrepreneurship

CBS Business Connect brings leading researchers, business community, politicians, organisations, and public authorities together to discuss how we best lift the task of leading entrepreneurship in Denmark.

CBS aims to build bridges to the business community and strengthen its future external relations. For those reasons, CBS Business has created Business Connect, which is designed to present new knowledge and bring new perspectives to current issues.

The participants at the conference are CBS’ business partners and alumni, and as the programme concludes, we will serve a light buffet and let you network.

Participation is free.

Please note that the conference will primarily be held in Danish.
