Copenhagen, Denmark June 24-27, 2019 1 AIB President’s Letter Welcome to Copenhagen for AIB’s 2019 BOARD MEMBERS Annual Conference Hurrah! We have officially set an all-time record for AIB conference attendance! AIB 2019 Copen- hagen has the largest number of registrants for any event in our organization’s history, beating President President-Elect out the previous record of 1,208 set by the 2013 Chuck Kwok Marjorie Lyles conference in Istanbul! I think part of the credit for this year’s record- breaking success is due to the beautiful city of Copenhagen itself . Copenhagen was once a Viking fishing settlement—one can still find traces of ancient Norse explorers, the remains of a 1,000-year-old castle, and museums dedicated to the Viking raiders . The city has a blend of modern Immediate Vice President architecture and historical artifacts, providing plenty of cultural attractions Past President Program (2019) for our conference participants . Lorraine Eden Maria Tereza The theme of this year’s conference is quite timely: “International Business Leme Fleury in an Unsettling Political and Economic Environment ”. Unpredictable and contradictory forces currently shape the international landscape, causing perplexity and challenging the basic assumptions of statesmen, manag- ers and scholars . How should governments, corporations and individuals prepare for such unpredictable world? The research presented at this year’s conference will attempt to tackle that challenging question . On behalf of the AIB Executive Board, I would like to thank Maria Tereza Vice President Vice President Fleury (AIB 2019 Program Chair,) her track and committee chairs, and our Program-Elect (2020) Program-Past local committee chair, Dana Minbaeva . They, along with an entire team Rebecca Piekkari (2018) of volunteers, have put countless hours of hard work into organizing this JT Li outstanding conference . According to Maria Tereza, we received 1,289 sub- missions this year for panels and competitive and interactive papers . Out of those submissions, 912 were accepted, providing material for a total of 263 sessions! We also need to thank Rebecca Piekkari (AIB 2020 Program Chair) for assisting Maria Tereza in organizing this year’s extensive pre-conference pro- gram . For AIB 2019, we have increased the total number of pre-conference Vice President Vice President workshops to 15 . In addition to the usual sessions hosted by the editorial Administration Administration teams behind AIB’s journals (JIBS and JIBP), a variety of other academic Hadi Alhorr Helena Barnard publications will also offer paper development workshops, including IBR, GSJ, JMS, JWB, and MOR . Our local host, the Copenhagen Business School, has also organized a special Engagement Day on June 24, 2019, which is intended to bring practitioners and scholars together to begin a dialogue on sustainability development and responsible management . Each year during our conference, we give out many awards . 2019 is special as it marks the 50th anniversary of AIB’s Journal of International Business Stud- Vice President Executive ies . There will be a special award ceremony conducted by JIBS Editor-in-Chief Administration Director Alain Verbeke . There, platinum, gold, and silver medals will be awarded Luis Dau G. Tomas M. Hult to a number of scholars, in recognition of their frequent and substantial contributions to JIBS . In the area of scholarly service, Gold Medals will also INCOMING MEMBERS (for 3-year term beginning August 1, 2019) be awarded to our 8 past JIBS Editors in Chief . The AIB Executive Board would like to express our sincere gratitude to all of the contributors whose work has helped make JIBS the top journal in International Busi- ness . To borrow a description from our local host, Dana Minbaeva, “Copen- hagen is a vibrant, urban, and diverse city . Whether one prefers explor- ing Denmark’s history in our museums, viewing fascinating architecture at the Royal Palace, or sampling the world-renowned New Nordic Cui- President-Elect Vice President Vice President- sine, there is something for every taste ”. In addition to your work at the Jeremy Clegg Program-Elect Elect conference, please be sure to spend some time enjoying this beautiful (2021) Administration city . Remember: All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy . Gary Knight Rebecca Reuber Chuck Kwok AIB President, 2018-2019 2 International Business in an Unsettling Political and Economic Environment Host School Welcome Dear Members of the Academy of International Business, Welcome to Copenhagen Business School, probably the best international business university in the world! International business is in our DNA . It is evident in our recruitment of academic and administrative staff and students, and in our published research, educational programs, campus-development initiatives, outreach and strategic partnerships . Internationalization is who we are and what we do . We are more than 21,000 students and 1,500 full time employees, including faculty members, PhD students, and administra- tors . Students from 95 different countries are currently enrolled at CBS and 40% of our full-time academic staff are international . 33 of the programs in our portfolio are taught in English . Moreover, we have ex- change agreements with 296 universities and business schools worldwide . However, our internationalization is more than just “facts and figures ”. Internationalization serves as the cornerstone of our mindset . The process of transforming CBS from a domestic handelshøjskolen with a na- tional perspective into an internationally recognized, triple-accredited business school has been underway for the last 100 years, and it remains one of the key pillars of the university’s “Business in Society” strategy . Our internationalization efforts are captured by our continuous drive to increase its global engagement through research, education, and wider societal engagement . As PRME Champions and a UN Global Com- pact Signatory, we are committed to a future built around sustainability and responsible management . We believe that in today’s unstable political and economic environment, it is our responsibility to not only know where we stand with regards to global challenges but also to take an active position . That is why hosting this year’s AIB is so important for us . We are searching for the answer to the most fundamental question: What will our global future look like? We are curious about solutions, we would like to share our learnings and we are ready for action . I would like to thank all of the CBS staff members who have contributed their time to make AIB Copenhagen a success . My greatest thanks go to my fabulous teammates, Larissa Rabbiosi and Evis Sinani . I am also very grateful to the Department for Strategy and Innovation (Head of Department: Keld Laursen) and the De- partment for International Economics, Governance and Business (Head of Department: Jens Gammelgaard) for their support . I would also like to thank our sponsors for their generous contributions . Most of all, I would like to thank every delegate who chose to come to this wonderful city and make this con- ference the largest annual event in the history of AIB . I sincerely hope that you enjoy every moment of your stay at CBS, in Copenhagen and in Denmark . There is so much to see and so many conversations to follow . There are a great many things to do . Let’s get to it! Professor Dana Minbaeva Vice-President for International Affairs Copenhagen Business School Copenhagen, Denmark June 24-27, 2019 3 Letter from the Program Chair Dear Colleagues, A very warm welcome to Copenhagen and the 61st annual meeting of the Academy of Interna- tional Business . Copenhagen is one of the world’s most vibrant cities, where Scandinavian natural beauty meets a friendly atmosphere that values sustainability and diversity .
