XXXIII AEDEM International Conference

Dear AEDEM scholars and conference participants,

 

It is a honor for Universidad EAN to host the XXXIII AEDEM International Conference of the European Academy of Management and Business Economics, which will be held in Bogotá from August 30th to September 1st, 2026. We are pleased to invite you to join us at this event, designed as a forum for academic exchange where, through its various panels and sessions, we will have the opportunity to share perspectives, discuss ideas, and strengthen our research in the fields of management and business economics. This environment will further enhance the dissemination and publication opportunities of the studies presented, contributing to the transfer of knowledge to society.

 

AEDEM Internacional Conferences are distinguished by their international essence, reflected in the participation of scholars from diverse countries and cultural backgrounds. This global dimension is complemented by its intergenerational spirit, bringing together senior academics with extensive experience and emerging researchers who present advances from their doctoral dissertations, master’s theses, and undergraduate research projects. Conference participation can be both in person or online.

 

We look forward to welcoming you in Bogotá and sharing with you not only an academic space for reflection, but also moments of interaction and community-building among AEDEM members.

 

We warmly welcome you to the AEDEM International Conference 2026.
