Two days in honour of the anniversary

CBS 90th Anniversary

The CBS anniversary conference programme includes presentations by, among others, the former Finance and Foreign Minister, Mogens Lykketoft, and the CEO of Royal Copenhagen A/S, Peter Lund. The two-day conference, on 8th and 9th November, is just one of the ways that CBS is celebrating its 90th anniversary.

Life at CBS

According to the Director of Campus Facilities, Gert Bechlund, the two anniversary days, packed with events, are a good representation of life at CBS that is characterised by a wide choice of activities. - The anniversary is the perfect occasion to show the diversity of the Business School over the year.

Every year, a large number of exciting arrangements take place at CBS, and even though a 90th birthday could be associated with getting old, we want to demonstrate that CBS is not lazy, says Gert Bechlund about the anniversary programme that will take place throughout the academic year 2007/2008.

The Danish model and Globalisation of Danish hearts are some of the topics that top business leaders as well as researchers from CBS will tackle during the conference. The school's students, employees, and other guests will all have the opportunity to take part in the two-day conference before joining the CBS anniversary celebration taking place at Frederiksberg town hall on Friday afternoon.
