NO PARTICIPATION FEES: Thanks to the funding from the Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange’s (NAWA) project STER, participation in the SGH 2024 International Conference "Challenges of modern economy - research conclusions of young scientists" is free of charge.

TOPIC: Against the backdrop of research specific to economics, finance, management, political science and politics, the objective of the 2024 SGH International Conference is to examine how contemporary events, processes, and developments impact economy, business sector, society (including the third sector), and politics. The goal of the conference is to encourage a debate on how the resulting context best referred to in terms of uncertainty, unpredictability, complexity, and turbulence impacts strategies, policies, and consumer behavior.

APPROACH: The 2024 SGH International Conference "Challenges of modern economy - research conclusions of young scientists" will explore from various perspectives both promising and more traditional topics related to challenges of modern economy in the form of plenary sessions, workshops, as well as a series of tracks. Bringing together young scholars and experienced, internationally recognized academics, the conference will serve as a venue where the conference participants will have opportunities to receive feedback on their research.

Following a review by the Conference Academic Committee, the authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to submit either full papers (up to 7000 words, including references, tables, figures, etc.), extended abstracts (ca 2500 words) or posters.

PARTICIPANTS: We welcome and encourage both empirically and conceptual-orientated papers, adopting a variety of methodological approaches and utilizing diverse sources of data, written by young scholars (MA students, PhD candidates, as well as early post-docs)

PUBLICATIONS: The authors of best papers, presentations, or posters, upon a recommendation of track chairs, will be invited to submit their work to either of journals from a list identified by the conference organizers.
