On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Kellogg College and the Skoll Centre for Social Entrepreneurship are delighted to welcome acclaimed economist, Sir John Kay, for a conversation about his new book, The Corporation in the Twenty-First Century: Why (Almost) Everything We Are Told About Business Is Wrong (Profile Books, 2024).
The book surveys the vast economic transformations that have occurred since the days of Adam Smith and Karl Marx, when capitalists built and controlled mills and factories. In contrast, both products and production today are increasingly dematerialized: the goods and services provided by the leading companies of the twenty-first century appear on your screen, fit in your pocket, or occupy your head. As Sir John argues, the consequences of this shift are upending classic ideas about the means of production, capital, and corporate power.
