Onsite and Virtual Presentation

About the Conference

In its 34th year, ASBBS is one of the oldest interdisciplinary conferences. Our motive is not revenue. For the past 34 years, ASBBS has assembled academics and practitioners from around the world for interdisciplinary deliberations. We do not hold multiple (tens or dozens!) conferences. Until recently, we used to hold two conferences per year – one in the U.S. and another one in a foreign country. For the past several years, ASBBS has been organizing one conference every year. Our conference committee is composed of distinguished academics. There is no AI Assistant to answer any question you may ask – all communications are acknowledged and all questions are answered collegially by a conference committee member. Your conference presentation proposal, either as an abstract or a complete paper, will be carefully reviewed, and you will be notified within 3 days of receipt of your abstract or paper.

Papers and abstracts for presentation are considered for all business and behavioral disciplines including but not limited to the following alphabetized areas: accounting, accreditation standards and issues, business laws, business cases, cyber security, economics, educational leadership, entrepreneurship, ethical studies, finance, information technology, international business, international trade, management, marketing, multi-cultural studies, psychology, public administration and sustainability. Participants are encouraged to suggest additional tracks and organize thematic sessions of four or five presentations for a block of 90 minutes.

Deadline for submissions: September 15, 2026

Since its inception in 1993, ASBBS has recognized papers which excel in quality and contribute to the body of knowledge. Complete papers submitted to the conference by the submission deadline are considered for the Best Paper awards. The Annual Banquet and Award Ceremony is the hall mark of the conference, where the authors of the Best Papers are recognized with a Certificate of Appreciation.

ASBBS publishes two interdisciplinary peer-reviewed Journals – the Journal of Business and Behavioral Sciences and the Journal of Business and Accounting. Complete papers submitted to the conference receive accelerated reviews for these journals. While submitting your paper for conference presentation, please indicate if you are interested in publishing your paper in one of these journals. The review process for journal publication is separate from that of the conference submission. Please click on ASBBS Journals at the bottom of this page for full details.

Visa Requirements

All U.S. citizens are required to obtain the Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) to travel to the United Kingdom. Obtaining the ETA is a simple process and may be completed by a smart phone. It costs £20 and requires a valid passport good for at least six months. Once granted, the ETA is valid for two years provided the passport is also valid for two years. Visit the U.K. Government website for step-by-step instructions for obtaining the ETA. U.S. citizens may apply for the ETA without a proof of conference presentation. Citizens of other countries are advised to check the visa requirements for travel to the U.K. If required, the acceptance letter for presentation of your research may serve as a valid document to obtain U.K. visa.
