Overview

In partnership with Euromed Management, the Bentley Center for Business Ethics and Bentley Alliance for Ethics and Social Responsibility proudly presented the 2011 Bentley Global Business Ethics Symposium, sponsored by the State Street Foundation. The seventh in a multi-year partnership, the event brought together international academicians, corporate and civil society leaders, and media to explore best practices and challenges in business ethics and ethics education.
