The event gathers 100 university students from all around the world – no matter their chosen course of studies – and 40 prominent international leaders from different areas during August 3th, 4th and 5th 2012. Applications may be sent in from February 1st until May 6th 2012. In order to attend this event, students must write an essay making reference to this year’s main theme: “Global objectives, collaborative actions“. Afterwards, a selection will be conducted by an independent jury, composed by professors, business leaders and journalists.
Given the structure and purpose of the forum, it represents an excellent opportunity for students to, actually, be in contact with present leaders of the institutional, business, political, economic and academic areas, as well as with other students from around the world. This will rise an enriching dialogue and convey ideas that may contribute directly to the sustainable development of the region. Moreover, it is an experience in which the cultural exchange contributes to the students’ both personal growth and professional development.
During previous editions of the SABF, students from universities, such as Harvard University, London School of Economics and Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, among others have participated of the forum. Therefore, this year, in order to live up to the same level of excellence we would like to invite the students of your university to be part of the event.
This is a forum organized, annually, by and for students with the institutional support of the Instituto Tecnológico de Buenos Aires (ITBA), in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Universities in several countries, such as the USA, Switzerland and Germany, among others, have been host of this sort of events for more than 30 years, thus serving as an inspiration for the creation and structure of the SABF. This is why, it is of the greatest importance to us to be able to count on all the help and collaboration the universities might provides us, as far as promotion is concerned. Should our event be of your interest, please contact us, we would be more than willing to work together, in order to be able to offer your students the opportunity to be part of this unique experience. Opportunely, we have prepared graphic material, promotion e-mails, and a promotional video, which you may find useful for this task. Furthermore, we appreciate any observation or pointer that might help us make the promotion process more effective.
Please, feel free to contact me at this address, should any doubt arise. For more information about the SABF, you are more than welcome to visit our official web site: http://www.sabf.org.ar/english.
