Disclaimer
- This conference embraces a genuinely multidisciplinary ethos, welcoming research contributions that intersect international business and marketing with adjacent fields including economics, behavioral science, digital technology, sustainability studies, and public policy — provided submissions maintain clear relevance to the conference’s core thematic focus.
- Submission of an abstract or full paper to the conference does not constitute confirmation of attendance; only completed registration accompanied by verified payment processing will secure a participant’s place at the Vaughan 2026 edition, and the organizing committee reserves the right to reallocate unconfirmed slots.
- The conference program is structured across multiple concurrent and plenary sessions spanning the full event duration, and while every effort is made to schedule presentations considerately, the organizing committee cannot guarantee that all attendees will be available to attend every session, nor can session times be individually rearranged to accommodate personal scheduling preferences.
