Since 1989, the Institute for International Business has hosted the International Executive Roundtable lecture series for university students, staff, faculty, and members of the international business community. These events serve as a forum in which executives and government officials meet with university faculty, staff, and students to discuss timely issues in international business. They also educate students, staff, and faculty about international business practices and provide exposure to the experiences of executives in the global marketplace. International Executive Roundtables allow lecturers to speak on real world scenarios and pass valuable research insights on to faculty.
The IIB designates featured lectures by renowned speakers as distinguished lectures: Robert Reynolds Distinguished Lecture (led and hosted by CU Denver's Business School), The Greg and Carol Jemal-Gibson Distinguished Lecture, and the Burton Boothby Distinguished Lecture.

A Conversation about the Global Ethical Use of Emerging Technologies
Tuesday, September 24, 2024
12:00 pm – 1:30 pm (Mountain)
Jake Jabs Event Center
CU Denver Business School, 1st Floor
1475 Lawrence St. Denver, CO 80202
Program Overview
During the past months, we have seen much handwringing about the ethical use of emerging technologies both on a local and global aspect, especially LLMs such as Grammarly and ChatGPT who seem to complete human tasks faster and better than humans. Ultimately, as we design the ethical parameters of the use of these technologies, each of us has the opportunity to work within our circle of influence to inform our own and the community's understanding of how to use these emerging technologies ethically. This presentation will focus on how we can identify our circle of influence and use our own power of choice and persuasion in shaping the ethics of emerging technologies.
