CALL FOR TRACK CHAIRS
The EuroMed Research Business Institute (EMRBI) solicits proposals for
hosting specific tracks at the 4th Annual Conference of the EuroMed
Academy of Business. Please note that all papers and abstracts accepted will be
published in the Book of Proceedings (with an ISBN number) which is
approved for inclusion in ISI Conference Proceedings Citation
Index - an integrated index within Web of Science. This
huge distinction is given only to the most significant conferences
conventions worldwide that demonstrated high academic quality.
Prospective track chairs should submit a short
description of subjects that will be included in their track. The proposed track
should not be too general, but also not overly specialized, thus being able to
attract a wide audience of people sharing similar interests. Proposals from
industry are also welcomed.
All track proposals will be reviewed by the
Conference Organizing Committee with respect to the above criteria. The
committee reserves the right to: (1) accept the proposal as it is, (2) recommend
merging of similar proposals with a considerable overlap, (3) reject the
proposal.
Upon acceptance of a proposal, the track chairs
will be notified of the timetable and related responsibilities. The deadline for
track proposal submission is 15th of February, 2011. The acceptance
of track proposals will be announced before the end of February, 2011.
We expect
all Track Chairs to start the review process at the end of April and complete it
by end of May 2011. Upon receiving all reviews, the track chairs are responsible
to send them timely to the Conference Organizing Committee together with their
recommendation on whether the paper should be accepted or
rejected.
Track chairs will get a specific
schedule for accomplishment of the review process. They will be responsible,
among other things, for:
-
preparing the list of reviewers
-
distributing papers/abstracts to reviewers with guidelines and
evaluation forms (these will be provided by the EuroMed Academy of
Business)
-
make sure that the review forms are returned back to them on
time
-
following the reviews, the track chairs are required to provide
for each paper/abstract their own accept/reject recommendation
-
submitting all recommendations by end of May, 2011 (the specific
date will be announced)
All proposals should be submitted
electronically and in a Word.doc format only to
Dr. Shlomo Tarba [log in to unmask]
