Impact Event of the UK & Ireland Chapter of the Academy of International Business: An Agenda for Sustainable International Business
The Academy of International Business (AIB) is a premier global community of international business (IB) scholars. The AIB currently has scholars and institutional members across eighty-nine countries, which are supported by thirteen regional chapters. The Academy is dedicated to promoting impactful research, improving business education and practice, and collaborating with leaders in policy and interdisciplinary research. The MIIB initiative, launched in 2021, has been organising various activities to achieve this vision. The UK & Ireland Chapter of the AIB would like to invite you and your institution to join a virtual event on 20 November 2023, entitled “An Agenda for Sustainable International Business”. This event is co-organized by MIIB, the AIB UK & Ireland Chapter, and the University of Leeds.
The event will focus on how International Business Education and Research can foster future decision-makers for Sustainable International Business. To meet societal expectations, exporters, importers, multinationals, and global value chain participants need to be more sustainable. The demand for sustainable products is growing due to Green Policy and ESG standards, but businesses face challenges in sourcing and applying sustainable technology and testing sustainable business models. Further, this deficit presents a barrier to policymakers who advocate for a Green Agenda and support the actions of the private sector. Collaborations between IB scholars, universities, and non-academic stakeholders is key to make a difference here.
The event will feature talks by experts in Sustainable Business. You can interact with them and discuss effective ways to develop the right curriculum for future businesses. The event will announce a global student poster competition on Sustainable International Business, encouraging universities, scholars, and firms to join forces. As an educator, researcher, and advocate for sustainable business programs, your contribution will be highly valued. The event will end with the invitation to form a network for Sustainable International Business Research and Education. You are warmly welcome to join MIIB’s expanding impact-driven community.
