The purpose of the Business and the Environment Club is to support students interested in the intersection of competitive business organization and sustainable environmental practice. Within this arena, Business & Environment actively promotes a professional and social network designed to provide enhanced access to SOM alumni, corporations, non-profits and NGO’s committed to environmental sustainability. Recognizing that all of SOM’s professional and social activities have an environmental component, Business & Environment acts primarily as a partner/resource for other SOM clubs and organizations and seeks to support the inclusion of environmental factors in their decision-making processes. Business & Environment sponsors and co-sponsors a number of activities throughout the year, including alumni and guest speakers, roundtable lunch discussions and professional and social activities.
