This year’s theme of “Leveraging Artificial Intelligence and ESG Management for Business Excellence” will provide a forum for academics/practitioners and professionals to share their research studies/experiences/knowledge in the scope of management schemes to move forward in this spontaneous world. A short list of presented papers will be selected so that the revised and extended versions of these papers will be published in the special issue of the journal of Asia Pacific Management Review (APMR).
