London , England - March 2012
Fordham London Centre, Heythrop College, Kensington Square

Course -- Doing Business in Europe

LOCATION
Fordham London Centre, 23 Kensington Square, Housed on the campus of Heythrop College

INSTRUCTOR
Jonathan Story, Emeritus Professor, INSEAD

COURSE DESCRIPTION
As every issue of the Financial Times illustrates, doing business in and with Europe is a sizeable part of the world economy and, represented by the European Union (EU) and/or its members, is an important player in international trade, monetary, regulatory, environmental and security politics. Europe also is the prime home of multi-nationals in the world, with a foreign direct investment footprint around the world twice that of the United States. In fact, Europe is a region which shares its key characteristic of diversity with the rest of the world. Learning how to do business in Europe is therefore of interest to business people originating from the region, as well as from elsewhere.

COURSE TAKEAWAYS
  • Develop clearer understanding of how the EU and its major member states 'function', how they make key decisions, how significant home and host countries are for corporate operations there, and not least, what an extraordinary wealth part of the world Europe is.
  • Understand the political, market and business environment of Europe in which commercial decisions take place.
Course attendees will include current students in the EMBA Program and MS in Investor Relations Program as well as EMBA Alumni.
