IESE E-business Forum




Resume


Due to continued student interest in the volatile Internet market and the overwhelming success of last year's event, IESE held its second annual E-business forum on March 29.
Throughout the day, over 250 MBA students heard from five companies with proven track records in e-business. In addition, an afternoon recruiting session, attended by over 20 companies, gave students the opportunity to learn more about possible careers in Internet-related companies.
The presentations addressed a wide variety of topics, ranging from trends in Internet technology and how to make products more valuable and user-friendly to start ups in the new capital market. While many presenters acknowledged a growing apprehension toward Internet companies by both possible recruits and clients, most said a proper business model and attention to consumer needs would help alleviate some of the problems posed by the market today.
