The focus is the global scope of Business History as it is practiced around the world today. With attention on as many countries around the globe, the World Conference on Business History will focus on the exciting and new research in Business History as practiced in many countries of the world, in as many regions of the world and on all continents comprising the globe. The growing presence of Business History research in emerging economies and developing regions makes it imperative to bring all of those scholars together. The global integration of Business and Research call for academic engagement at a world conference dedicated to Business History. The multidisciplinary nature of Business History inquiry across time and place offers a unique opportunity to bring scholars from all over the world together to deliberate on the entire scope of Business History disciplinary inquiry.
