Objectives
This summit builds on the momentum from the first Asia-Pacific RRBM Summit at Tsinghua University in 2024 to advance the credibility and societal importance of Business School research in Asia-Pacific. The event offers a rare chance for leaders to assemble from across the Business School research ecosystem (including inspiring researchers, editors, Deans, accreditors, publishers, and policymakers), and from all Business School disciplines, to shape the future of responsible research in Asia Pacific.
The event will feature keynotes, panels, and roundtable discussions on how to shape Business School research in Asia Pacific for a better future. The goal is to build a rich ecosystem through which we can share insights, learn from each other, address shared challenges, and chart a vibrant, impactful future for Business School research that appreciates the unique challenges and inspiring future of the Asia-Pacific.
Target Group
The event is aimed at all members of the research ecosystem within business and management fields that are interested in pushing and promoting the agenda of responsible research that is both credible and socially impactful.
Location
The event will take place at Sasin School of Management, Bangkok, Thailand
