CONFERENCE
The conference will be hosted by the University of South Australia Business School, in the Hawke Building, Level 6, 50/55 North Terrace, Adelaide, South Australia


DOCTORAL COLLOQUIUM

The doctoral colloquium will be on Wednesday 15 February 2017, hosted by Flinders Business School, at the Flinders University City Campus, located at Victoria Square.

Full details are available at - http://www.anziba.org/conferences_events/annual_conference

There are three broad themes that form the pillars for the theme of the 2017 ANZIBA conference:
Internationalization, International Entrepreneurship and the Emerging Markets

Some aspects that are especially worthwhile, include:

*       How rapid internationalization in emerging markets have brought about broader social and political consequences. eg, political activism, attitudes toward women in the workplace, attitudes towards the environment, etc.

*       Similarly, such a transformation has influenced the economic sphere and nurtured a new breed of young (bold) entrepreneurs. What do we know about this new entrepreneurial breed?

*       What are the consequences of the rising middle class in emerging markets? Has it served as the driver for a new entrepreneurial breed? What about the tension between the traditional and the 'new' middle class?

*       What impact has the recent slowing down in emerging markets had on: (i) internationalization of emerging markets firms, (ii) new start-ups, and (iii) the growth of middle class?

*       Revisiting business linkages between emerging markets and their major trading partners in the western economies; for example, China and Australia.

*       Revisiting ethnic entrepreneurship, again in the same context.
Below are a few additional questions that you might consider:

*       What governance structures are most effective in helping an entrepreneur manage the risks of an asymmetric relationship when partnering with an MNE?

*       Using a comparative approach that compares data across nations, what cultural and institutional influences have the greatest impact on entrepreneurial internationalization?

*       At what point do industry clusters become so concentrated that over competition and resource scarcity impede new entrepreneurial activity and success?

*       How do networks within an industry cluster location influence the formation of alliances that facilitate internationalization?

*       What network ties have the greatest impact for identifying international opportunities?
