    Working Ethics in Business & Society Symposium (WEBS)

    Wednesday, September 24 – Sunday, September 28, 2008

     

    The primary objective of the Working Ethics in Business & Society Symposium (WEBS) is to develop actionable solutions that address significant challenges facing industries, organizations and individuals within three broad topical areas:

     

    Sustainable Development

    Health Care

    Technology

     

    Developing solutions requires innovation, creativity, an applied orientation, and participation from multiple sectors.  The WEBS Symposium will bring together business leaders, entrepreneurs, scholars, researchers, governmental and non-governmental organizations (NGO's), as well as not-for-profits.  The program is designed to encourage cross-sector discussion and problem solving through professional development workshops and high impact plenary sessions led by nationally and internationally recognized champions.
