Program

We invite participants to submit full papers related to the following tracks:

Entrepreneurial Innovation for Sustainable Development
Sustainable Business Practices and Strategy
Human capital and Ethical Leadership
Digital Transformation and Technology for Sustainable Enterprises
Finance and accounting for Sustainable Ventures
Operations and Supply Chain Management for SDG Achievement
Marketing and sales for sustainable companies.
Emerging topics not covered by the tracks above.

The conference committee suggests that submissions should address issues related to sustainable business and entrepreneurship (SBE), the main theme of the conference (Harnessing Entrepreneurship and Technology for Sustainable Development Goals), one of the eight conference tracks mentioned above, or one of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on https://sdgs.un.org/goals . Authors are strongly encouraged to mention one of those issues in the title, abstract, keywords, introduction, or other relevant sections of their papers, as such alignment will be considered highly beneficial.

Please also note that this is a management and business conference. The conference committee will reject submissions that are purely related to science, technology, engineering, mathematics, arts, and other non-management/business disciplines.
