Henley International Business Masterclasses (Spring 2024)
The Henley International Business Masterclasses are an initiative developed in the International Business and Strategy unit at Henley Business School. The masterclasses are delivered in two sets each academic year, in the Autumn and Spring session. The Spring session 2023/2024 will consist of three masterclasses which will be taught in hybrid mode from 8 April to 11 April 2024 (see details below). The courses have been designed for face-to-face delivery, and participants are encouraged to attend in-person to benefit from face-to-face interactions, but those who are unable to travel to Reading will be able to attend the live sessions online via MS Teams. The masterclasses are offered to PhD students and post-doctoral researchers.
Spring term Masterclasses 2023/2024 Application processParticipants can either attend as formally enrolled students or as non-enrolled attendees.
On 12-13 April 2024, the Dunning Centre for International Business hosts the 9th Reading IB Conference. The Conference main theme builds upon the following question: ‘Can capitalism ever be inclusive and equitable, and can MNEs really help?’. Over the two conference days we will follow the traditional Reading Conference approach of open-ended debates with an explicit focus on conceptual and theoretical developments. We will also have competitive paper sessions in all areas of international business. Masterclass participants are welcome to register for the conference and submit their extended abstracts/paper.
Delegates registered for the conference can benefit from £100 rebate off the Masterclasses’ registration fees. This offer only applies to participants who will be attending masterclasses and conference in person.
