Business persons are active members of EBEN and EBEN explicitly wants to be a two way organisation where academics and businessperson constantly interact and learn from each other. We support business persons by offering:
Through the activities of our members and the many conferences EBEN offers a constant stream of publications in business ethics with established links with the big publishing houses. We publish yearly special issues of the Journal of Business Ethics (special price to EBEN members attending the Annual conference) and ZFWU and have an institutional link with Business Ethics European Review. EBEN represents Europe on the International Business Ethics stage e.g. at the conferences of the International Society of Business, Ethics and Economics. We have extensive contacts with a number of affiliated organisations all active in the field of business ethics and CSR and are regularly active in political bodies preoccupied with CSR and business ethics.
