Disclaimer
- ICBM 2027 is an explicitly multidisciplinary conference platform; while the primary focus is business management, contributions intersecting adjacent fields such as economics, public administration, behavioral science, and technology management are welcomed, and the organizing committee does not claim singular domain ownership over all topics discussed during the event.
- Submission of an abstract or full paper to the conference does not constitute confirmed attendance; authors and participants are required to complete the formal registration process and remit the applicable registration fee in full before their participation — whether in-person or virtual — can be officially confirmed by the secretariat.
- Attendance at specific keynote sessions, workshops, or parallel tracks may be subject to room capacity limitations and scheduling constraints; the organizers reserve the right to adjust the program, including session timings and speaker assignments, and recommend that attendees review the final program schedule published on the official conference website prior to arriving in Oshawa.
