EMC is the most impactful conference in Russia in the area of business, management and emerging markets. We bring together the real emerging market context and the quality of the top international conference. We give voice to BRICS scholars, encouraging knowledge dissemination and creating the better future of emerging markets. The 8th EMC conference will be held ONLINE. Call for Papers 2021
The year 2021 and pandemic have posed tremendous challenges to economies and societies worldwide. The very nature of the global connectedness of people, organizations and countries has thus been called into question. The new world order manifests itself not only in restrictions on mobility, collapse in investment and disruptions in value chains. It also offers promising new 
technologies, increasing work automation and new employment constellations that need to be critically assessed. The consequences of pandemic will most likely persist for the years to come, especially for companies that engage in international activities. We believe that scholars and practitioners of management and international business are the ones who can creatively and multidisciplinary make sense of and navigate the major global trends.
One of the outcomes of the current megatrends is the shift of economic power towards China, India and other emerging markets that become the new hubs of global economic activities and effective participants in overcoming the pandemic crisis. There is thus an ever increasing need to illuminate on the emerging markets debate in the frame of the mainstream international business and management discussions. We invite you to have this debate with major scholars in the field at the 8th GSOM Emerging Markets Conference 2021. As a business school hosted by the Russian university with more than 300 years history, and representing one of the BRICS countries, GSOM has the insider position here. At GSOM Emerging Markets Conference 2021 scholars and practitioners can closely look at the emerging market context for the management and business studies.
