AIB-UKI HistoryWe have recently published the history of the AIB UKI chapter on the website. The material for this History was gathered by Stephen Young, his untimely death however prevented him from completing the work.
This history is dedicated to the memory of Stephen Young. Work to complete the History was undertaken by Frank McDonald, Heinz Josef Tüselmann and Pavlos Dimitratos. Invaluable information to enable the work to be completed was provided by Peter Buckley. Elena Karali, Asma Mitchla and Ida Rauto Dessai of the Department of International Business, Leeds University Business School, provided instrumental help in preparing this document. Thanks to Sarah Blake for help with preparing the document. The AIB UKI history can also be downloaded from here. |
