5th GIKA Conference in 2015: GIKA Europe/Atlantic, and the Journal of
Business Research. TWO SPECIAL ISSUES IN JBR.
CALL FOR PAPERS NOW OPEN
The Conference of the Global Innovation and Knowledge Academy
(GIKA): "New Knowledge Impacts on Designing Implementable Innovative
Realities" will be held in Valencia (Spain). The Journal of Business
Research (JBR) will participate in this 5th GIKA Conference. The
Conference will take place from July 13th (Monday) to July 16th
(Thursday), 2015.
The theme of GIKA 2015 is New Knowledge Impacts on Designing
Implementable Innovative Realities, hosting special issues on:
1. New Knowledge Impacts on Designing Implementable Innovative
Realities (open topic to provide a platform to discuss the challenges
pertaining to contemporary issues in multidisciplinary research in
the development of theoretical and practice knowledge of business,
management and economy).
2. Qualitative Comparative Analysis, Crisp and Fuzzy Set, in
Business and Management (exclusively on the research methods).
For this 5th GIKA Conference, it is possible to organize symposiums
in Arabic, French, German, Italian, Mandarin, Polish, Portuguese,
Spanish, Russian, Turkish etc. These symposiums will be presided by a
native speaker of these languages who will recruit a collection of
papers to be presented in these symposiums. This is an innovative
issue for GIKA Conferences. We think that speakers should be allowed
to be as comfortable as possible in presenting papers. Audience
members will able to understand the papers sufficiently via the
English-language slides. Presenters may wish to handout a 2-5 page
single-space summary of their papers in English in their symposium--
if so, they should consider hand-carrying between 30 to 50 copies of
the summary to the conference to do so. Requirements:
1) Full papers will be sent to the organization in English (deadline
February 28th, 2015). President of these symposiums should send the
collection of papers in, only, one email.
2) All PPT slides, used in the presentations, should be prepared in
English (it is valid only English).
We are announcing the fifth GIKA Conference. Feedback and Q&A
sessions, including suggestions from editors of international
journals attending the Conference, helped the authors publish their
papers. Each edition of the GIKA Conference offers the chance to
publish in the JBR with a special issue edition containing the best
papers from the Conference. In GIKA 2015 we are honored to announce
that there are TWO SPECIAL ISSUES of JBR to publish best papers in
2016. In addition to paper presentation sessions, paper symposiums,
and plenary speech sessions by top international scholars, the
Conference provides new programs, including a pre-conference research
methodology workshop (by Professor Arch Woodside), a keynote speech
and a meet-the-editor session on how to publish in the Journal of
Business Research (by the JBR editor, Arch Woodside). Meanwhile, the
Conference also welcome teaching case studies and research case
studies.
The 2015 GIKA Conference will be held in Valencia, Spain. Valencia is
a beautiful city (please visit

with many fascinating historical monuments, excellent cuisine and a
lively Mediterranean atmosphere. March and July are the most popular
months for residents to spend their Fallas Fiestas (in March), and
summer break when often taking the chance to enjoy the city’s beaches.

important scholars will be prepared to share their advice for your
