Dear Colleagues,
It is our great pleasure to invite scientists, scholars, young researchers, business delegates and students from all over the world to attend the International Conference on Applied Research in Management and Economics (ICARME) with the theme “Rethinking Management and Economics in the (New) 20’s”, which will be held from June 29 – July 1, 2022 Leiria, Portugal.
Rapid industrial and economic growth during the last few years have launched wide debates among society and academics regarding new ways of doing business, in which organizations must be excellent in dealing with a plethora of internal and external pressures such as managing people, understanding consumer behavior, or dealing with market trends. By building bridges between researchers, practitioners, community and industry, ICARME aims at promoting interdisciplinary research on the emerging challenges in Management and Economics for the forthcoming decades.
We hope that ICARME will allow researchers to share insights into the recent research and cutting-edge methodologies, which gains enormous interest with the presence of experts, young and brilliant researchers, business delegates and talented student communities. This conference will promote top level research and globalize the quality research in general, thus making discussions and presentations more internationally competitive and focusing attention on the recent research endeavours in the fields of Management and Economics, as well as on the future research avenues and forthcoming challenges.
We are looking forward to an excellent meeting with great scientists from different countries around the world and sharing new and exciting results in Management and Economics.
Yours Sincerely,
Neuza Ribeiro

Call for papers
As the world is slowly recovering from a worldwide health crisis, the focus now turns with dealing with the economic and social consequences of an unprecedented economic lockdown. The firms and the economies struggle to resume their growth path. But may this be achieved using the same development model that existed before? The 2020 decade may be the opportunity for a new development model for societies and firms, as well as a challenge for existing firms. The recent social and political concerns regarding the social inclusion, decarbonization, and the green agenda may offer an opportunity for developing and reconverting businesses. But a prolonged lockdown has also changed the relation with digital tools and their use became widespread and ubiquitous. The consumer behavior changed with a significant increase in online sales, forcing many firms to focus on this channel and adapting their logistic. The notion of work itself as shifted as a significant number of people worked remotely for the first time. Thus, the challenges of remote working for firms, employees and society are important issues in the foreseeable future. All in all, how can we contribute to shape firms, economies, and society in the 2020 decade?
Prospective authors are kindly encouraged to contribute and help, either through physical or virtual presence, to shape the conference through high-quality research contributions describing original, unpublished results of conceptual, constructive, empirical, experimental, or theoretical work in the areas (but not limited to) listed below.
