Dear Colleagues, On March 14th, 2019 the Academy of International Business Latin America Chapter will host a joint JIBS-JIBP Paper Development Workshop for junior scholars seeking developmental feedback on their current research projects in international business (IB). The PDW is the most extensive of the various outreach activities conducted by the editorial teams of the two AIB journals, Journal of International Business Studies (JIBS) and the newly launched Journal of International Business Policy<https://aib.msu.edu/publications/aboutjibp.asp> (JIBP). JIBP is particularly interested in those who wish to develop the policy insights of their work. Organized by Santiago Mingo (Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez), the PDW involves JIBS and JIBP editors and several board members, and is sponsored by the Sheth Foundation and AIB. The purpose of the PDW is to improve the quality of IB research and bring new scholars into the IB field. We invite original papers from scholars who have ambitions of publishing in the AIB journals. The PDW will be structured to provide feedback to authors with theory and policy papers, and to researchers who are designing empirical studies, on international business topics. The program will start with a short introductory note by the JIBS and JIBP representatives. The participants will then divide into small groups. Authors will be paired with editors who will provide feedback on the authors' manuscripts. Submission Requirements Participants will be accepted based on the quality of their submitted manuscripts. Papers should be submitted via email to Santiago Mingo ([log in to unmask]) with the message header "AIB-LAT 2019 JIBS-JIBP PDW". Please note that each applicant should make one submission only. The deadline for submissions is December 1st, 2018. Research papers must be less than 10,000 words in length, and follow the JIBS Style Guide (http://www.palgrave-journals.com/jibs/style_guide.html). Participants will be notified about the acceptance of their submissions no later than the first week of January 2019 and will need to confirm their participation in the PDW by January 31st, 2019. Preference will be given to participants who have not attended any JIBS or JIBP PDWs in the past.
