OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Smith School Business Fellows
The Business Fellows Programme provides the Smith School with a practitioners’ perspective on our research activities. Most Business Fellows are employed or engaged in the field of business sustainability, and their deep and wide ranging experience is used to review, challenge and refine our areas of academic enquiry.
Business Fellows are drawn from the corporate sector (Diageo, Marks and Spencer, Mars, Royal Dutch Shell, SABMiller); financial institutions (Circularity Capital, Newton Investment Management, UBS); and enabling organisations (Accenture, Environment Agency, PwC, Xynteo). Their collective knowledge represents a valuable asset to the Smith School, and Business Fellows are currently variously involved within our Long-Term Investment, Environmental Management, and Sharing Resource Prosperity programmes. We recognise the imperative of an integrated approach, where conceptual frameworks that seek to address the challenges of scarcity and sustainability must be validated against the practicalities of getting things done in the real world.
Business Fellows serve by invitation. These are not ex officio appointments; Fellows are valued for their independence as much as their experience, and they engage with the School in their personal capacity. A series of events are organised through the academic year, and Business Fellows are expected to participate actively. There are typically 12-15 Business Fellows at any time, most of whom serve a fixed term. If you are interested in joining the Fellowship, we would be pleased to hear from you. Please contact the Programme Director, Dr Alex Money, to find out more.
