Objectives of the seminar:
The objective of this two-and-a-half-day “Business and Society Research Seminar” is to bring together doctoral students, emerging scholars, and more experienced academics to present and discuss their research projects and receive feedback in a stimulating, developmental and friendly atmosphere. We will explore commonalities as well as differences in each other’s research approaches and themes in an inspiring, sociable, and convivial academic setting. Similarly to previous editions of the seminar, this year’s event will be composed of plenary, thematic paper discussion sessions, and workshop sessions dedicated to research methodology and publication strategy.
