The main focus of the conference
The central topic of our conference this year will focus on innovation and technology. Therefore, we kindly ask speakers and researchers to contribute to this topic by discussing the economic changes generated by technological development/innovation and evaluate these changes from an economic and business perspective.
R&D activities, as well as the actual innovations and technological changes immerse and become part of the everyday economic processes either if look at the production processes or the marketing of new products. These certainly require new leadership methods, management systems and marketing tasks from economic agents and, at the same time, imply significant changes in the government sector as well.
The internet as well as information and communication technologies have incurred significant changes not only in everyday human communication, but also in everyday consumption habits and behavior and business management. The online system, the new digital era of networked consumers, manufacturers and devices can be regarded as the new industrial revolution. Such technological impetus may yield new services and new professions, but it also has a significant impact on regional competitiveness and can also deepen regional differences. The growing penetration of computer technology and the implementation of various applications in the economy, and in general the timely recognition of these opportunities bring new challenges.
This conference aims to discuss and deal with the above challenges, and we would be glad to receive your contributions as well. After the conference a selection of submitted papers will be published in the conference proceedings.
