While worldwide trade continues to face major disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, certain urban centers have remained hot spots for the activities of multinational enterprises: Mega-cities.

The role these massive metropolitan areas play in our global society will be the subject of a free webinar, showcasing a variety of research from the latest issues of the Journal of International Business Studies and Journal of International Business Policy. To join the live conversation between these IB experts, all you've got to do is register by August 26.

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

Full details and a registration link for this session are available below. We look forward to seeing you online soon!
