    Dear Colleagues, 
     

    We are pleased to invite you to collaborate in the design of the program by proposing topics for discussion and symposia for the 21st EURAM GRDO SIG Annual Conference by 3 July 2020.


    The EURAM 2021 Conference will be held in Montréal, Canada on 16, 17 and 18 June.

    Our conference theme is "Reshaping capitalism for a sustainable world".

    We live in an interconnected world that faces great challenges in shaping its FUTURE. In response, we must find new ways to stimulate sustainable economic growth by creating new jobs and economic opportunities for all, serving society, protecting the environment and coping with various threats such as climate change, cyber threats, health crises and humanitarian, economic and financial crises that may arise in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. To address these challenges, we must initiate a fair dialogue among all stakeholders and groups involved. These include scholars, private and public companies, other organizations, and policymakers at the national and supranational levels. Let us work together to blur the boundaries between research and practice and find solutions for reshaping capitalism, in a context of pluralism of ideas, multiculturalism, diversity, and inclusion. Let these solutions transcend national boundaries and the narrow goals of each interest group.
     

    The dialogue must address, openly and courageously, any dichotomies among the views of these stakeholders regarding the timing and means for reshaping capitalism. We can learn from one each other, share ideas and engage collectively in the development of new knowledge that concerns, but is not limited to: new, sustainable paths to innovation that combine social innovation, digital innovation, artificial intelligence and human creativity; new entrepreneurial approaches that combine social entrepreneurship and financial entrepreneurship; new corporate governance practices across the world that address the competing demands of the numerous stakeholders of the Boards and the ability of companies to withstand a crisis; new approaches to strategy & corporate finance that help corporations to balance between their global approaches and their markets' local needs; new, innovative and sustainable HRM practices and leadership styles in different cultural contexts; new business models aimed at creating economic, social and environmental value and sustainable patterns of consumption; new business practices and public policies throughout the world that seek to improve the wellbeing of our society, the health of our people, the future of our planet, and the strengths of our businesses, financial markets and industries.
     

    In order to adopt a transdisciplinary approach that transcends the boundaries between sciences and combines academic work and professional practice, we expect that proposals will come from scholars from various cultural and academic backgrounds - management sciences, social sciences, environmental sciences, health sciences, communication, education, ICT or other related sciences.
     

    Do not hesitate to contact the relevant Special Interest Groups (SIGs) chairs by email. Information about the SIGs can be found here.
