Language: The conference will be held in a mixture of German and English - the morning in German and English, the panel discussion in the afternoon in German. The moderator is bilingual and an interpreter will be present.

When it began, Google’s corporate code of conduct motto was: “Don’t be evil.” Today, many question both the accuracy and relevance of that slogan. Today’s global business environment presents current firms, the upcoming generation of students entering the workforce, and would-be entrepreneurs with completely new challenges.

The 9th Annual Business Day is dedicated to exploring and navigating potentially successful paths to the future of business vs. the business of the future. It also will link those paths to the German-American Student Exchange Program and incorporate presentations from former and current U.S. student interns in Germany.
