About the SIG
In the fast changing global economy, the need for cross-disciplinary approaches to phenomena such as the rise of multinationals from emerging economies, poses challenges that cut across the fields of international management, economics, finance, and international business. Meeting the challenges of managing in this rapidly evolving environment, means that a Special Interest Group is needed to both identify and anticipate the new research agenda, and to muster resources to enhance our capacity to develop our academic skills and to lead the way to creating an environment in which academic research will engage with the non-academic community, in particular government and the commercial international business community. Aims and Objectives Provide a forum for debate and discussion on the interface between international business, area studies and international management Encourage and facilitate high quality cross-disciplinary research, integrating across the fields of international business, area studies, and international management research Develop close links between this SIG and associated learned societies Act as a bridge to develop linkages between researchers in international business and international management and end users, including companies and governmental and non-governmental business support agencies Promote the development and support of doctoral students in international business and international management Contribute to the development of the international business and international management curricula at undergraduate and postgraduate levels Shaping the future research agenda through a programme of events held during the year and at the annual conference.
