Dear Colleague,
The March 31 deadline for submissions to the
AIB-US West Chapter 2018 Conference is fast approaching!!
Join us in Denver, Colorado on October 18-20, 2018 for an exciting conference in a vibrant location. Denver is not only home to the headquarters of various global companies, but is cradled by the beautiful Rocky Mountain National Park. The city is adjacent to some of the world's best ski resorts in neighboring Vail and Aspen, and is a cultural hub, with a rich nightlife, museums, art, and a host of restaurants.
The conference, hosted by the University of Denver, will offer the opportunity to visit and network with colleagues from around the world, share your work in competitive sessions, and attend a range of activities such as panels, plenaries with keynote speakers, and a workshop on International Entrepreneurship.
Of special interest to doctoral students and junior faculty is our Paper Development Workshop on October 20. If you are interested in participating in the PDW, please email your manuscript to Prof. Sarika Pruthi (sarika.pruthi@sjsu.edu).
B Best Paper Awards and Publication Opportunity: Outstanding papers will be considered for Best Paper(s) and Best Student Paper(s) Awards. In addition, the European Journal of International Management and the International Journal of Emerging Markets have agreed to sponsor best papers certificates in two topical areas: Emerging Markets and International Management (all papers, regardless of which track they were submitted to, will be considered for these awards).
