Welcome Participants,

 

Welcome to the 16th IAMB conference of the International Academy of Management and Business that took place on November 6-7, 2013 in Washington, DC, USA. IAMB extends its gratitude and appreciation for the outstanding hospitality of George Washington University and CIBER, (Center for International Business Education and Research), Washington, DC, USA.

 

The theme of the conference was: “Confronting global challenges and uncertainties at the intersection of Government, Institutions and International Business”

 

The conference provided a platform for professionals, practitioners, academics, educators and researchers in the various fields of management and business to disseminate and share the latest research, knowledge and experiences. The conference hosted scholars from 25 countries around the world, covering over 50 universities, academic institutions and businesses. The friendly atmosphere, the one on one opportunity for exchange and networking, and the multi-national exposure were cited among the top benefits from conference attendees. Each submitted abstract/paper is peer reviewed and only accepted abstracts/papers were presented. Selected manuscripts will be published in the official journal of IAMB, the International Journal of Management and Business, IJMB.
