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
Financial and business services, including law, accounting, and business consulting, have been one of the most dynamic sectors of the world economy, and one of the most controversial. Although they are central to the processes of globalisation, financialisation and development, our understanding of the sector in the context of tumultuous changes of the early 21st century is partial. How have these firms and their geography been affected by the global financial crisis and the Eurozone crisis? How are they changing in response to new financial regulation, the expected shift of economic activity to Asia-Pacific and the Global South, and the digital revolution? What are their impacts on urban, regional, and global development?
