The "World Business Dialogue" is the world's largest student-run business convention. Here, 60 top-class personalities from economy, science and politics enter a discussion about economic and socially relevant, future-oriented topics with 300 international students and just as many executives, notably from German companies. For 25 years, Cologne University is converted into a convention center for the economic elite for two days. Also known under its former title "Deutscher Wirtschaftskongress", the World Business Dialogue will once again take place in March 2013 for the 16th time.
