Dear members of ONE,
The second International Conference MESD 2009, jointly organized by the ICN Business School, the CEREFIGE (Centre Européen de Recherche en Economie Financière et Gestion des Entreprises - a multi-university European business research consortium), France and the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, USA, will be held in Nancy and Metz, France from 4 to 6 November 2009. You will find below brief details of the conference and you will find full details on the conference website: www.mesd2009.org
The Conference focuses on the issue of Strategies for Sustainable Technologies and Innovation. This event will allow participants to debate and share research questions at the core of sustainable strategic management, which are equally relevant to management scholars, economists, lawyers, sociologists and all the engineering fields concerned. It encourages participants to discuss core questions such as why, when and how strategic technological and innovatory choices will be made and deployed. It will also compare worldwide corporate policies and best practices.
We are inviting academics, research-oriented practitioners, experts, consultants and other professionals in the area of Sustainable Development, and encouraging the participation of individuals whose role is to influence the future strategies used by their businesses. The Conference will be especially interesting for representatives from multinational companies: Senior Executives in Sustainable Development, Resource Management, and/or Strategic Planning. This conference has also been designed to address the needs of Governmental and Legislative Bodies, the UN, and Non-Governmental Organizations. We welcome paper proposals from research Faculty, business and policy practitioners, as well as advanced graduate students.
We cordially invite you to attend the MESD 2009 International Conference. Also, we would be grateful if you could help us in promoting our conference to any person or network you know likely to be interested.
We look forward to hearing from you.
