XXXII AEDEM International Conference

The 2025 AEDEM International Conference will be held at Università degli Studi di Palermo, Italy, between August 31st and September 2nd, 2025.


Dear AEDEM Academics and conference participants,

The University of Palermo has the privilege and honour to organise the XXXII International Conference of the European Academy of Management and Business Economics (AEDEM), which will be held in Palermo from August 31st to September 2nd, 2025. In this sense, we would like to invite you to participate in this meeting which, through its various panels, will allow us to exchange ideas and knowledge to enrich our research in the field of business administration, favouring the possibility of dissemination and publication of the papers presented, and thus contributing to the transfer of knowledge to society.

The international scope of the AEDEM Conference has its origin in the diversity of its attendees, coming from different countries and cultures, which contributes to generate a more global vision of the economy. This diversity is also notable in its intergenerational culture, where academics of extensive experience share spaces with researchers in training, who present the results of their Doctoral Theses, Master's Theses (TFM), and Bachelor's Theses (TFG).

As a novelty, this year it will be possible to participate in the conference in person, but also online.

We hope to see you in Palermo and to be able to enjoy this event together, in which, in addition to sharing a space to reflect on academic issues, we will also share moments of conviviality among the members of AEDEM.

Welcome to the AEDEM International Conference 2025!


Salvatore Tomaselli Ph.D.

Associate Professor of Business Administration, Università degli Studi di Palermo

Profesora Titular Facultat d’Economia, Universitat de València
