IBEC - International Business and Economy Conference

The International Business and Economy Conference is administrated by an executive committee and an editorial advisory board. To achieve the objective of providing a platform for intellectual discussion among scholars and practitioners, IBEC rests on the active participation of recognized scholars and institutions who voluntarily collaborate every year.
