The breadth of topics addressed in the proceedings demonstrates the scope and dynamism of contemporary research.
Over the years, the Forum has become a recognized international platform for scholarly exchange and critical discussion in the fields of economics, business, and management. By convening researchers, practitioners, and policymakers, the Forum provides a setting in which theoretical developments and practical challenges can be examined in dialogue. The motto of this year’s conference, “New Horizons in Economics and Business,” captures its underlying ambition: to broaden perspectives, stimulate innovation, and contribute to knowledge production that enhances competitiveness at regional, national, and global levels.
