LOCATION: TIASNIMBAS BUSINESS SCHOOL, TILBURG


Tilburg University (Department of Organization Studies ), TiasNimbas Business School, Triple Value Strategy Consulting and ICCO will organize the first BOP learning lab session in the Netherlands on June 5, 2008.

We intend to build a platform that connects the ‘best brains in the BOP business’ thus stimulating mutual learning and providing the opportunity to jointly move the BOP agenda for business, NGO’s and government forward. As a result, participants will gradually be enabled to:
- Enhance foresight in the major trends that shape BOP markets
- Sharpen insight in successful BOP strategies and business models
- Increase impact through the development of effective BOP strategies

This specific BOP Learning Lab session provides you with a unique opportunity: We are hosting the first BOP Learning Lab Directors Summit. Consequently, Professor Stuart L. Hart and key representatives from our global network will be present during the BOP Learning Lab session. The fee to participate in this seminar is € 300,00 (excl. VAT). The invoice will be sent to you after registration.
