6 November IN-NED: Toezicht bij Woningbouwcorporaties Woningcorporaties bewegen zich in een complexe maatschappelijke omgeving. De opvattingen over wat een woningcorporaties 'moet' en 'mag' doen, is in beweging. Van corporaties wordt verwacht dat zij bijdragen aan het oplossen van problemen in dorpen en wijken. Tegelijk kijken politiek en samenleving kritisch naar de legitimiteit van projecten waarin corporaties investeren. Binnen die complexe context bepaalt de corporatie zijn eigen positie en maakt keuzen, rekening houdend met de stakeholders in het werkgebied. Rond zes thema's worden in parallel sessies ervaringen uitgewisseld. Dit onder voorzitterschap van branchekenners. Key note speaker: Hans Andersson In samenwerking met: de Vereniging van Toezichthouders in Woningcorporaties (VTW) Deelnemers: 50% INSEAD alumni en 50% toezichthouders uit de corporatiesector Date: Tuesday, November 9 th Time: Location: Deloitte & Touche, Rotterdam mail@mariusfrank.nl November IAF Fundraising Dinner: Endowment Fund The Dutch Alumni Association has chosen to become a co-founding member of the newly founded INSEAD Endowment Fund.
