The Annual Conference on Business Economics (ACBE) 2026, organised by the Department of Business Economics in collaboration with the 22nd International Conference on Business Management (ICBM), provides a dynamic platform for fostering academic discussions that bridge research and real-world economic challenges.

In an era of rapid economic transformations and heightened global uncertainties, the role of sound economic analysis in shaping public policy and business strategy has become increasingly critical. ACBE 2026 seeks to address contemporary economic issues by facilitating rigorous research, data-driven insights, and meaningful dialogue among students, academics, industry professionals, and policymakers.

A key highlight of ACBE 2026 is its strong emphasis on undergraduate research, offering students a valuable opportunity to present their work and engage in scholarly discussions alongside experienced researchers and practitioners. This initiative contributes to nurturing young economists and strengthening their analytical and research capabilities, preparing them to contribute effectively to future economic decision-making.

Beyond research dissemination, ACBE serves as a hub for collaboration by connecting academia with industry and policy circles, enabling the exchange of ideas that support economic progress. The insights generated through the conference are not only academically enriching but also relevant for informing economic policies, business strategies, and development initiatives.

By bringing together diverse perspectives, ACBE 2026 aims to reinforce the link between economic research and practical application, ensuring that academic inquiry remains relevant, impactful, and aligned with emerging global economic trends.
