ICARME2022: International Conference on Applied Research in Management and Economics Escola Superior de Tecnologia e Gestão - ESTG Leiria, Portugal, June 29-July 1, 2022

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?
