This event will give you the opportunity to strengthen existing connections and make new ones.

We are excited to invite you to “Unfinished Business”, a special celebration to mark the 20-year anniversary of the Centre for Business, Organisations and Society (CBOS) at the University of Bath School of Management.

This one-day event is dedicated to bringing together our many faculty and PhD alumni, friends and visitors from the past two decades to join a conversation with our current faculty and students on how far we’ve come in rethinking the role of business in a sustainable society, and where we need to go next to address the many challenges facing us today and in the future.

The day will feature presentations and panel discussions with our past and current researchers, break-out sessions, posters, and lots of chance to meet, chat and network with friends old and new.

This free event will take place in the School’s state-of-the-art new building, with an online hybrid element for those unable to make it to Bath. Please join us!
