Do stories matter and what can they mean for businesses? Two CBS researchers answer these questions as a prelude to an event organized by the Department of International Business Communication and CBS Alumni.

You can also meet CBS alumnus Jakob Haldor Topsøe who is chairman of the board at the Danish tech company Haldor Topsøe’s holding company. When he began studying at CBS, he did not expect to involve himself deeply in the company founded by his grandfather, but today it takes up most of his time.

In this first Alumni Update newsletter of 2016 we also take a short look back at some of the many ways alumni engaged with CBS in 2015.

Happy reading,
CBS Alumni
