    Boston, 2012

    PDW sponsored by CMS, BPS, OMT Saturday Aug 4th 2012, 2:30PM - 4:30PM At Marriott Boston Copley Place in Boylston

    What does economic inequality in society, as highlighted by the recent Occupy movement, mean to business? What is the effect of economic inequality on business and vice versa? Should business respond to economic inequality, and if so, how? Should policy makers respond to this issue with a focus on regulating business practices? The PDW will develop a conversation on this topic. The first half of the PDW will be a moderated discussion involving a panel of experts. The second half will involve roundtable discussions and feedback on participants ideas on this topic. To ensure a high quality program, participants are requested to email in advance (by July 15th) a 1-2 page word document outlining their ideas on the topic to either organizer listed below. These ideas will be used to organize the roundtables. We expect developing thoughts and agenda-setting ideas, but well developed research summaries are equally welcome. This submission is highly encouraged, but those without submissions are also welcome to attend.
