We are delighted to invite Deans and senior leaders of UK business schools to gather in person for the Chartered ABS Annual Conference this November.

COVID-19 has reshaped our economic prospects and the fabric of society. This year’s programme explores the role of business schools in this new world; and how we can best serve our students, parent institutions, business partners and society at large.

Key themes for this year’s Annual Conference include:

Resilience

How business schools can help the UK weather the legacy issues of the pandemic and contribute to society and the economy through reskilling/upskilling programmes, small business support and innovative research.

Innovation

The innovative ways in which business & management educators are delivering online and hybrid education; and the new, creative ways in which business schools are supporting student progression and attainment.

Inclusion

How we can engender honest conversations with staff and students about race; and work to ensure that our EDI goals remain a core focus amongst competing demands.

Sustainability

How business schools are tackling the challenges of climate change; and making further progress on the UN’s sustainable development goals.

Internationalisation

The future direction of international student recruitment; new opportunities in transnational education; and the state of the market for recruiting international faculty in 2022 and beyond.
