*Call for papers:*

The economic and political landscape around us is changing rapidly. We have
entered an era of persistent contradictions with societal and economic
changes leading to major disruptions/turbulences across the globe. These
pressures and changes are putting great pressure on SMEs and MNEs and their
ability to internationalise and sustain their competitive advantage.

Existing strategies and business models used by decision makers may seem
insufficient or the least to say, are not equipped to handle these fast
pace changes. International Business and Entrepreneurship [IBE] as a field,
may need to reinvent itself, to accommodate for these changes and
challenges into existing theories and paradigms.

At the AIB-UKI <https://www.aib-uki.org/conference.html> conference in
Glasgow, we aim to tackle and debate these issues. Bringing together
scholars from different parts of the world and researchers who conduct
research in different regions/countries, we hope to provide important
refinement and reinvention of new ideas and perspectives that would enrich
and enhance the IBE field.

To address these and other related issues, the Academy of International
Business UK & Ireland (AIB-UKI <https://www.aib-uki.org/conference.html>)
announces its 47th Annual Conference “Re-visiting SME and MNE
Internationalisation in an era of paradox”, to be hosted by Adam Smith
Business School, University of Glasgow.

theme. But research more broadly based on international business will also
