Ethics & Compliance Roundtable – Coming Spring 2018

One Day Roundtable

Ethics is very important to a business for a number of reasons. A business that behaves ethically attracts more customers, stakeholders and quality employees. Unethical behavior, on the other hand, can damage a company’s reputation, negatively impacting its bottom line and market value.

Each year, San Francisco State University’s College of Business and the Center for Ethics & Sustainable Business hosts a Business Ethics Week. This year’s Business Ethics Week will take place November 6-9 on SFSU’s main campus as well as its downtown SF campus. The annual event involves over 5,500 undergraduate and graduate business students and faculty members as they hear from business and industry experts on topics related to business ethics, corporate and social responsibility, the environment and sustainable business.

The Ethics & Compliance Roundtable is a half-day event that brings together students, faculty and the business community to discuss current topics surrounding business ethics and compliance. Companies that have participated in the past include PG&E, Kaiser Permanente, Salesforce.com, Starbucks Coffee Co., Genentech, Salesforce.com Foundation, FedEx, Bank of San Francisco, and the Gap Inc.
