Dear Colleagues,

Association of Japanese Business Studies (AJBS), founded in 1987, is an international association of professionals actively pursuing the exchange of information and ideas concerning the Japanese business system and its economic, social and cultural environment. AJBS holds annual conferences at venues throughout the world in cooperation with the Academy of International Business (AIB), providing an opportunity for discussion of current developments and research on a range of business, public policy, and teaching issues related to Japan. AJBS will hold its next annual conference ahead of the Academy of International Business (AIB) in Seoul, South Korea, July 2–3, 2024.
