Dear Colleagues,

We cordially invite you to take part in the special topic session “Economic development through sustainable entrepreneurship and efficient management” within 33rd IBIMA Conference.

Economic development can be considered one of the most prominent and emerging tools in the facilitation of local and regional development. It refers to a multi-dimensional measuring concept providing a comprehensive overview of a country’s progress, specifically including social development aspects making it a more inclusive measurement tool to determine a country’s economic prosperity. In addition to this important concept is entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurship has become a well-known topic amongst various stakeholders, to the extent that it is considered by international and national researchers and policy formulators as the link to increased and sustained economic development and growth.

Considering the aforementioned, the track session chairmen invite participants to discuss and share research findings on the influence of sustainable entrepreneurship and management on local and regional development as well as novel and interesting findings on the concepts of economic development.

The session will provide an opportunity to exchange opinions and experiences of participants, present research and establish new cooperation networks between scientists and higher education academics from different countries. No doubt, the initiated ideas during the conference may become the beginning of interesting and fruitful international projects and collaboration.
