Flying below the radar?
The annual Center for Corporate Finance Conference was hosted by the Department of Finance on 4 June.
An engaged group of 40 attendees of 21 nationalities from 13 business schools and universities met for a full day of keynote lecturers and paper presentations.
Kasper Meisner Nielsen from Copenhagen Business School engaged the audience with his lecture on “Flying below the radar? Insider trading by executives below the top”.
The other keynote speakers this year were Michael Ewans (Columbia Business School) on “Irreplaceable Venture Capitalists”, Juanita Gonzalez-Uribe (London School of Economics) on “The role of venture debt in start-up financing” and Daniel Metzger (Rotterdam School of Management) on “The sustainability wage gap”.
The conference was marked by active discussions and inspiring networking on current research topics. The main value from such a conference is to develop ideas, partnership and impactful research in a global research community.
