Dear Academy members,
I am delighted to invite you to attend the Professional Development Workshop (PDW) entitled "Social Entrepreneurship in Emerging Economies: A Philanthropic Approach" which will be held on Saturday, Aug 8 2009 from 10:10 AM to 12:40 PM at the Hyatt Regency Chicago (Atlanta room).
During this workshop, professors from leading institutions in the area of Social Entrepreneurship and Philanthropy from several areas of the world will present their views and research. We have been able to assemble an exciting program that will cover a full range of interests. For instance,
- Phillip H Phan from Johns Hopkins Carey Business School will give us an overview of microcredits and their impact on emerging economies
- Rosa Nelly Trevinyo-Rodríguez from Tecnológico de Monterrey (TEC), Campus Monterrey; will give an overview of how family firms promote and foster entrepreneurial philanthropy, sharing with us a different, broad definition of what philanthropy is
- Pascual Berrone from IESE Business School will reveal how corporate social responsibility (CSR) plays a role when talking about social development (Argentina, Spain and USA)
- Eric-Hans Kramer from the Netherlands Defense Academy will explore how insights from change management theory can help to reflect on some of the dilemma's social entrepreneurs face
- Lourdes Perez from EADA Business School will share with us how philanthropy is promoted in Spain
- Miguel R. Olivas-Lujan from Clarion U. of Pennsylvania will present about women entrepreneurs' economic development impact in countries as well as how they relate to philanthropy and social entrepreneurship
We very much look forward to seeing you in Chicago. Though pre-registration is not mandatory, we would like to have an estimate of attendance; please register by sending an email to paulapodmokly@yahoo.com
Best regards,
