ABOUT

This paper development workshop brings together an international group of academics conducting research in finance and related areas from business and economics. The symposium this year will have the format of a paper development workshop, where invited speakers and poster session participants will receive feedback on their work from leading experts and journal editors: Geoff Wood, Douglas Cumming, Roger Strange, Konstantinos Stathopoulos, Stergios Leventis, Marc Goergen and Igor Filatotchev. Journals that welcome papers from the workshop include: Academy of Management Perspectives, Journal of Financial Stability, Journal of International Accounting, Auditing and Taxation, International Business Review, Human Resource Management Journal, Corporate Governance: An International Review, Review of Corporate Finance, and Annals of Corporate Governance.

There will be no registration cost, but presenters (in the oral and poster session) will need to make their own arrangements for accommodation, travel and sustenance. Poster session papers should be sent as an electronic copy in PDF format to isf@uea.ac.uk by May 15th, 2023 for review. We follow a rolling acceptance system whereby authors are notified of the review decision within four weeks of submitting their paper.

The Symposium takes place at the Aegeon Beach Hotel in Cape Sounio, Greece, below the ancient Temple of Poseidon. Sounio is conveniently located 35 minutes from the Athens International Airport and 10 mins from the Lavrio port, at the end point of the beautiful Athenian Riviera. The symposium has a child-friendly policy and welcomes presenters with their families in the academic and social events. Participants are encouraged to stay on and take part in the International Symposium in Business (ISBIZ23) that will take place between 24-28 July 2023 during a 4-night Aegean cruise departing from Lavrio. In addition to the Aegeon Beach Hotel, there are several accommodation solutions in the area of Sounio, Lavrio, Anavyssos and Saronida that include hotels (e.g. Cape Sounio, Saron Hotel, Vincci EverEden), villas, and Airbnbs.
