On 9 and 10 October 2023, the CUT (Centre for Unframed Thinking) will host the Rennes SB Summit, an event designed to promote the exchange of ideas and to find solutions to today's challenges. It will bring together high-profile personalities to co-construct real-impact research and search for answers to the questions and upheavals facing our society.
Through this event, Rennes School of Business demonstrates its commitment to promoting research and affirming its strategy of rethinking business management, freeing itself from social conventions and models, and thinking outside the box (Unframed Thinking). Its reflections and studies are particularly focused on areas of transition such as Agribusiness and AI at the service of companies.
The Rennes SB Summit is also a way for the school to nurture its network of researchers and bring together experts and stakeholder communities in a single venue.
Today’s society is constantly changing, and responding to these challenges can be a real challenge. How can we finance these transitions? How can we innovate for the climate and transform production models? How can we rethink capitalism? These are just some of the questions that Rennes SB wants to answer. Through this event, the school wants to promote exchange and innovation in order to find answers to help build a better world.

Rennes School of Business will host its first annual Summit on the 9 & 10 October 2023, in the context of global and multidimensional transitions that are challenging certain prominent educational, managerial and economic frames. True to its motto, “Unframed Thinking”, Rennes School of Business has led and achieved significant reforms in its educational provision and research structure and programmes over the last three years to cope with these massive trends. The October Summit will be a unique opportunity to show the extent of this rapid development to the School community and beyond.
This first Summit is devoted to Leading Sustainability Transformations. It is structured around three main axes to reflect some of the principles lately reinforced by the School.
