Sophie Hoozée's visit to the University of Groningen
The University of Groningen was delighted to host Sophie Hoozée as part of their Accounting Research Program Seminar Series. She shared insights from her study titled “Do Voluntary Sustainability Disclosures in Social Enterprises Serve Legitimising Purposes? Evidence from Work Integration Social Enterprises (WISEs)” co-authored with Annelies Fievez and Lies Bouten.
In the presentation, Sophie talked a lot about whether and how social enterprises disclose their social mission, and what could explain these voluntary disclosures. The talk sparked a lively discussion around the various dimensions of legitimacy that might shape reporting practices.
The Unviersity of Groningen thanks Sophie for visiting them and sharing her research. They truly appreciated the stimulating conversation and look forward to seeing how the paper evolves!
