Fig: Global Social Business Summit 2017

From November 6 to 7, 2017, we participated in "Global Social Business Summit 2017" held at the facilities of "CITÉ UNIVERITAIRE DE PARIS", where we had the opportunity to attend seven plenary sessions. Thanks to this, it was possible to share experiences and learning with academics, activists, entrepreneurs, and public policy makers from different nations, in research, assistance and social intervention topics focused on entrepreneurship and strengthening social business.

At the same time, it was possible to consolidate the participation in the Global Network of Yunus Centre, in which Universities and Research Centers from different countries are concentrated, such as, the United States, Scotland, Spain, Chile, Peru, Thailand, South Korea, England , Bangladesh, India, Australia, Mexico, and others. A first effort was the contribution of research results made by the Faculty of Economics and International Relations on various aspects of research related to social business, which make up Vol 1, Num 2, of the International Journal of Social Business, created by the Yunus Centre and directed by Andrea Grove, from the California Institute for Social Business, on Channel Island, California.
