UNCTAD will launch on the occasion of the World Investment Forum a new project, in collaboration with GBSN, CEMS and top academic partners, to enhance the impact business schools can have on sustainable development objectives in line with the post-2015 development agenda. Business Schools for Impact will create a network of business schools worldwide to develop and share teaching materials, experience and ideas to boost Base of the Pyramid business solutions. The project supports the teaching of inclusive business skills in the areas of investment and entrepreneurship, and strives to increase the relevance of core curricula for developing country business schools. This Experts Meeting will define and brainstorm priorities for content development and define the areas where current and new contributors can support the initiative.
