OUR Mission

CBS Talks is a non-profit, student-run organization with more than 8000 members. We arrange events and inspiring talks with key figures from national as well as international business communities.

The objective of the organisation is to inspire students and to share knowledge that goes beyond the regular teaching of Copenhagen Business School, through which we aim to bridge the gap between education and business life. We provide students the opportunity to gain greater knowledge in how to lead a company or a team inside an organization. We offer a range of events with some of the most prominent executives from the business community presenting their views on everything from leadership and management to industry trends and inspiring career paths.

Every event is a new case, every talk is a new story that are unique to each individual speaker - a new opportunity for you to learn and get inspired. That is why we are bringing leadership to CBS!
