EABIS organises an annual colloquium to broaden and deepen international understanding of corporate responsibility and sustainability issues as they relate to a prominent field of business practice and research. As the world’s largest business-academic-stakeholder event on corporate responsibility and management development, it offers a platform for high level debate and exchange.
The 2010 Colloquium addressed the topic of "Corporate responsibility and emerging markets" and took place at Saint Petersburg State University September 20–21. In 2011, EABIS held their 10th Colloquium at the European Campus of the Business School INSEAD, in Fontainebleau, France.

Famous quotes containing the word events:
“I have no time to read newspapers. If you chance to live and move and have your being in that thin stratum in which the events which make the news transpire—thinner than the paper on which it is printed—then these things will fill the world for you; but if you soar above or dive below that plane, you cannot remember nor be reminded of them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The return of the asymmetrical Saturday was one of those small events that were interior, local, almost civic and which, in tranquil lives and closed societies, create a sort of national bond and become the favorite theme of conversation, of jokes and of stories exaggerated with pleasure: it would have been a ready- made seed for a legendary cycle, had any of us leanings toward the epic.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“I claim not to have controlled events, but confess plainly that events have controlled me.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
