WORKSHOPS1. International Business Paper Development Workshops Date: 25 April 2019 Venue: University of Sussex Business School The AIB-UKI 2019 conference will hold a joint Journal of International Business Studies (JIBS) and Journal of International Business Policy (JIBP) Paper Development Workshop on 25 April 2019. Chair: Becky Reuber Professor of Strategic Management, Rotman School of Management, University of Toronto, Canada. Area Editor: Journal of International Business Studies For further details, please download the Call for Papers for the JIBS-JIBP PDW here. The AIB-UKI 2019 conference will also hold a International Business Review (IBR) Paper Development Workshop on 25 April 2019. Chair: Mario Kafouros Professor and Chair of International Business and Innovation, Alliance Manchester Business School, University of Manchester, UK. Associate Editor: International Business Review. For further details, please download the Call for Papers for the IBR PDW here. The purpose of the PDWs is to provide scholars who have not yet published in JIBS or JIBP or IBR (whichever journal they are targeting) with developmental feedback on their current research projects in the area of international business. While we hope that many of these papers will be eventually submitted to JIBS or JIBP or IBR, the purpose of the PDW is broader, i.e. of improving the quality of IB research and bringing new scholars into the IB field. --- 2.
