Dear AIB Colleagues,
I am currently co-editing a book with Drs. Alka Maurya, Loveleen Gaur and Gurinder Singh titled Disruptive Technologies and International Business:
Challenges and Opportunities for Emerging Markets (DeGruyter, 2022). Might you be interested in contributing a chapter?
This book project is very relevant to the AIB community for the following reasons: 1) it has an international business theme, 2) it underscores the
importance of disruptive technologies in todays global business environment, 3) it promotes collaboration of scholarship across countries, 4) it provides an opportunity for scholars and researchers to showcase their work to a global audience, and 5) it helps
advance the understanding of the challenges and opportunities relating to disruptive technologies in emerging markets.
Various disruptive technologies are reshaping organizations and impacting economies worldwide. Drawing from international contributors from different
countries, the book aims to be a key resource on disruptive technologies and international business. The intended audience will be academics, corporate leaders, entrepreneurs, government leaders, consultants and policy makers worldwide.
In this book project, we are gathering academics, scholars and thought leaders from around the world to provide their perspective of disruptive technologies:
