The Global Business Forum (GBF) is an engaging MBA class and discussion forum where professionals from around the world share their insights into the complexities of doing business globally. The GBF is designed to connect students directly with global business leaders, and this is accomplished in part by inviting such leaders for panel discussions around a specific topic chosen for each quarter the course is offered.<\/p>\n

The Spring 2021 GBF course topic is, \u201cThe COVID-19 Global Heath Crisis: One Year Later.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Distinguished guests will join the course to describe how their companies and industries have changed since the spring of last year. In particular, they will address questions such as: Will the global travel industry have recovered? What new technologies\/companies have arisen to address the challenges presented by the crisis? Which global economies rebounded the most quickly and why?<\/p>\n

The EAC, SAC and CGS are especially pleased to partner with\u00a0NBR to bring Linda Distlerath, Senior Advisor of NBR and Trustee of the South Carolina Research Authority, to this quarter\u2019s GBF. The full list of guests are as follows:<\/p>\n
