Brochure
Founded
This conference was conceived as a natural extension of the basic
mission and values of these institutions, which share a commitment
to the vision of St. Vincent de Paul and his dedication to
education and service. The annual conference seeks to promote
business ethics through excellence in academic research and the
practical application of that research to business situations.
Our Vision
We are creating a more ethical world by dramatically changing the
hearts and minds of the individuals and organizations with whom we
interact.
Our Mission
We will achieve this vision by creating a synergistic community of
business and academic professionals, brought together to build a
richer academic exchange and a more ethical business
environment.
Our Participants
Academic and business professionals come together for compelling
conversations about pragmatic issues facing business today to
create a more ethical business environment and a richer academic
exchange.
Call for Proposals
We are looking for business professionals and academics who have an
interest in business ethics (in its broadest and widest sense) to
submit formal proposals. View the complete call for

Special Feature
As a special feature of this year’s conference, on Thursday,
October 27, we will be highlighting ethical issues facing the
insurance industry and related research. To encourage fresh, new
research in this area, the School of Risk Management, Insurance and
Actuarial Science of The Peter J. Tobin College of Business, is
providing cash prizes of $3,000, $2,000, and $1,000 for the
best papers on insurance/ethics issues research. A special
committee to judge those papers is being established.
The conference will be held at the Manhattan campus of St.
John’s University located in the heart of New York City’s historic
Financial District, minutes away from the World Financial Center,
The Statue of Liberty, Battery Park and the South Street Seaport as
well as many other attractions and museums.
The Manhattan campus is located between Greenwich Street and
West Street on Murray Street. It is easily accessible by mass
transit. If you are traveling by car, the campus's location on the
West Side Highway makes it easy to reach whether you are driving
from upstate, the city's other boroughs, Long Island, New Jersey or
any of the area's major airports.
