BoS Blog

The BoS blog provides a platform to discuss and inspire people to reflect and take part in the discussion on issues related to corporate social responsibility (CSR), corporate sustainability, sustainable consumption, and government’s impact on corporations, to name a few. As the name indicates, we are interested in how business and society interrelate, especially when considering businesses’ responsibilities towards society.

 

About:
The Business of Society blog (BoS) is run by a group of business school academics, with editors-in-chief Verena Girschik, Andreas Rasche and Anne Vestergaard from CBS Sustainability. We regularly invite guest bloggers to share their knowledge in order to secure a dynamic environment focusing on the latest research.
