Center for Sustainable Global Enterprise
CSGE: Cornell University's institute for sustainability and business, housed at the Johnson Graduate School of Management and directed by BoP pioneer Stuart Hart.
The Center for Global Sustainable Enterprise is located at the Johnson Graduate School of Management at Cornell University, in Ithaca, NY, USA. CGSE is chaired by sustainability and BoP guru Stuart Hart, directed by Mark Milstein, and includes such BoP notables as Erik Simanis, Duncan Duke, and Monica Touesnard.
"At the Center for Sustainable Global Enterprise (CSGE), innovative research and teaching programs generate and disseminate cutting-edge ways for private enterprises to achieve unparalleled financial success. Sustainable global enterprise is a management approach that frames social and environmental challenges as unmet market needs that can be addressed with business solutions. This straightforward approach enables the Johnson School to build robust MBA and executive programs in business and sustainability based on innovation and entrepreneurship. This sets it apart from most other management programs focused on corporate social responsibility (CSR), environmental management, ethical decision making, values-based management, and philanthropy.
Combining the business and entrepreneurship expertise of the Johnson School and the vast resources in science, technology, and the study of humanity at Cornell University, we are a powerful engine for advancing the global knowledge base in sustainable enterprise." - http://www.johnson.cornell.edu/sge
