Association of Japanese Business Studies Newsletter
Dear Colleagues,
Association of Japanese Business Studies (AJBS), founded in 1987, is an international association of professionals actively pursuing the exchange of information and ideas concerning the Japanese business system and its economic, social and cultural environment. AJBS holds annual conferences at venues throughout the world, providing an opportunity for discussion of current developments and research on a range of business, public policy, and teaching issues related to Japan.
Here, we have collated some up-to-date information for you to browse. We have included a collection of recent articles and conference information related to Japanese business studies. We hope you find something useful for your work!
AJBS will hold its 36th Annual Meeting in cooperation with the Academy of International Business (AIB) in Seoul, South Korea. The combined conference will run from July 2–6, 2024.
