A New Look at the Global Economy
The current economic recession has not only hit our continent, it has also already shaped the way corporations go about their current operations across the globe. In a world that has been completely transformed over the past few years, future managers cannot remain indifferent when it comes to the economic states of neighbouring and distant nations. By using technology as a means to reduce geographic, temporal, didactic, and cultural barriers, companies now have the ability to diversify their activities. Managers are thus faced daily with cases that highlight their aptitude and willingness to adapt and that appeals to their creative side like never before. It is with this mind that this year’s edition of the Financial Open will encourage and demand students, just as current managers, to be mindful of global financial implications.
