In support of the World Inquiry on Business as an Agent of World Benefit Pepperdine University MSOD students and Alumni organized an inaugural event in Beijing. The city is rich with potential for business and social responsibility. We hope this event is the beginning of an inquiry community that will join the global forum intended to unite the best in business with the call of our times. The summit was held on March 9, 2005, and focused on discovering the many ways that the Beijing business sector is putting its people, resources, imagination and assets to work to benefit humanity. Attendees included representatives from BP, Shell, Pfizer, Bayer, Communist Part representatives, a several NGOs. 18 people from Pepperdine University formed a core steering committee and support team. Furthermore, 50 MBA students lined up for a pre-summit discussion on Tuesday morning at Renmin University. Contact Ellen Raboin at ellen@thedialoguegroup.com for more information.
