be held in the University of Valencia and the Polytechnic University of
Valencia, Spain, from July 9th (Tuesday) to July 11th (Thursday), 2013.
The Journal of Business Research (JBR) is the sponsorship journal for
the Academy. One of the aims of the Conference is to select high
quality papers from the conference to publish in a special issue of the
JBR.
Special session “Meet the editor”. In addition to the regular paper
presentation, GIKA proudly presents "to meet the editor" session. The
editor-in-chief of JBR, Professor Arch. G. Woodside will have a face-to-
face session with the participants. In this session, Arch will explain
JBR’s mission, editorial process, recent submission trends etc. The
objective of the session is to help prospective authors understand what
it takes to get published in JBR, and why papers get rejected.
Participants will have an opportunity to interact with Arch.
