Lifelong Learning Program

Overview

The AIB US-West Chapter announces its 2023 Annual Conference, to be hosted by University of Nevada, Las Vegas. The 2023 Conference theme is “International Business in a Post-COVID World.” The COVID19 pandemic caused disruptions to the social, economic, and political landscape of countries across the globe. These disruptions also impacted firms, large and small, with some firms thriving and others failing to survive. The global health crisis continues to drive transformations to the scope, nature, and dynamics of international business. Product and process innovations, digitization, cross border mobility, new ways of work, business resilience, and corporate social responsibility, are just but some of the topics currently garnering attention as firms, societies, and governments emerge from the pandemic.
