Not only are we in the most populous country in the world—China— but one filled with great allure: from the “Silk Road,” a massive trading route in ancient times to today’s latest developments in global networks, today the pace of change is measured in nanoseconds, and human capital is at an all time high. The Academy addresses these important topics with cutting-edge research and important contributions in 10 specific tracks. Our program ‘From the Silk Road to Global Networks: Harnessing the Power of People in International Business,’ is formidable. The largest program in the history of the Academy, AIB 2006 had over 935 submissions from 55 countries requiring 1121 reviewers. The program offers you a staggering number of intellectually stimulating events: 116 competitive paper sessions (462 papers), 16 panel sessions, 41 clusters of similarly-themed interactive papers spread over 3 days (194 papers) and 27 special, showcase and/or pre-conference sessions including 4 special Plenaries. This year 4 track chairs have “Showcase” panels, which highlights state-of-the-art research. Here are some highlights of your program for the next 4 days: Friday June 23—A Full Day of Professional Development Activities: • The Past Presidents’ Roundtable Discussion, chaired by Sonja Sackmann and Julia Gluesing. This is a novel pre-conference workshop which involves 13 former Presidents of some major professional associations including AIB, who have agreed to convene a roundtable discussion on a topic of their choosing. • The Doctoral Consortium chaired by Kannan Ramaswamy (Thunderbird) • The Junior Faculty Consortium chaired by Sumit Kundu (Florida International U) • The AIB-JIBS Paper Development Workshop organized by Tatiana Kostova (U of South Carolina) and Arie Lewin (Duke U). Please note that all of the above events require pre-registration. • The formal program begins 4:30-5:30 on Friday afternoon with a series of welcome remarks, followed by an Opening Keynote by Weying Zhang, Executive Dean of Guanghua School of Management, on “Competitiveness of Chinese Enterprises in the Global Era”. This session will conclude with the announcement of a Presidential Award by AIB President Alan Rugman (Indiana U). • The AIB Fellows’ Opening Plenary, 5:30-7:00 on ‘Outward Foreign Direct Investment from China’ is comprised of Jean Boddewyn (CUNY), Rosalie Tung (Simon Fraser), Marjorie Lyles (Indiana), Oded Shenkar (Ohio State U), Danny van den Bulcke (U of Antwerp), and Bernard Yeung (NYU). • The Presidential Reception 7:00-10:00 at the Crowne Plaza. Saturday June 24 • Concurrent sessions are 75 minutes long and commence at 8:10, with an emphasis on harnessing people power in China and throughout our global networks. Epitomizing this is a Showcase panel(8:10-9:25) Advances in Learning, Knowledge and Innovation featuring Yves Doz, Marjorie Lyles, Sully Taylor, Haiyang Li, and John Hagedoorn who will address current advances and future directions. • Look for a few special sessions: 9:35-10:50 Buyer-Supplier Relationships addresses important relationships such as establishing and nurturing trust, quanxi and culture. • A Showcase Panel on Financial Dimensions of International Business offers insights from scholars including Claus Wilborg, Tamir Agmon, Bernard Yeung and Sarkis Khoury (9:35-10:50).

That way we expect greater synergies and you will have a chance to locate specific clusters of papers on the same theme. These sessions run from 12:30-1:45 on Saturday, Sunday and Monday and will have a light lunch provided.
