The Campaign for Sustained Leadership

Corporate restructuring in Asia, M&A in Europe and funding and investment in Africa were among the topics addressed at the Wharton 2000 Global Business Forum, held in November.

The forum brought together more than 1,800 students, business and government leaders, alumni, and scholars whose interests and expertise spanned six regions of the world. Through a series of speakers, panels and interactive debates, the three-day forum addressed emerging business themes and opportunities and investigated recent technological developments and their global application. Condoleezza Rice, chief foreign policy adviser to President-elect George W. Bush, was the forum's keynote speaker.
