Business Today International Conference

To those business aspirants, this is a fantastic opportunity for all of you to spend 4 days at Manhattan, New York City, listening, discussing and debating about Business with another 200 or so top students from all over the world, as well as with 50-70 top business executives in the world.

Business Today International Conference

This conference was founded in 1968 by Steve Forbes (Founder of Forbes Magazine), Jonathan Perel and Michael Mims when they were at Princeton University. Today, this is the premier business international conference in the United States. Other similarly prominent business conference for undergraduates around the world are:-
ISC Symposium, St. Gallen, Switzerland
World Business Dialogue, Cologne, Germany
Harvard Project For Asian and International Relation

Business Today International Conference would be held 19th to 22nd November 2005 at Marriott Marquis Times Square, Manhattan, New York City. The title would be "Business without Borders: The Global Economy".

This conference is open to students from any major who is studying at undergraduate anywhere in the world. The application deadline is 15th May. I went there last year, and it is definitely a great learning opportunity.

And for the cost, it is heavily subsidized. The conference (fee, accomodation at hotel, food etc) is completely free, courtesy of many corporate sponsors. For the flights, they will sponsor 85% of your flight from anywhere in the world.

hey chenchow, have you got accepted for this?

is it a rolling application, or they'll only screen thru' the appz after the deadline?

I think I'll apply...but gotta wait till my exams finish on the 6th...

Weich, as I will be graduated by then, so I am not eligible for it this year. I wish I could still go this year. But from my experience last year, it is fantastic.

It is not rolling application. I really hope that fellow ReComers, irrespective of whereever you are, could try and apply. This would be very useful experience.
