As the world continues to grapple with the effects of the current pandemic, our association is committed to ensuring that the entire IB community has access to useful academic insights.

One way we've addressed this challenge is by launching our free AIB Journals Webinar Series, which showcases a variety of research from the latest issues of the Journal of International Business Studies and Journal of International Business Policy.

Full details on our next online session and the articles being discussed are available below—register by July 22 to save your spot in our livestream audience.

As always, everyone who signs up for this webinar will be provided with a copy of each of the articles being discussed. Be sure to keep an eye on your inbox, too: That's where you'll receive your livestream access link, approximately 24 hours before the event.

We look forward to seeing you online soon!
