It is my great pleasure to invite you all to the University of Bath School of Management for EURAM 2024. This event marks an exciting opportunity for scholars, experts, and industry professionals from all around the world to come together and exchange knowledge and ideas on some of the most pressing issues in the field of management.

Our School of Management is renowned for its commitment to excellence and innovation, and we are delighted to be hosting this conference in our new state-of-the-art facilities. The theme of the conference, “Fostering Innovation to Address Grand Challenges” reflects the growing challenges faced by organizations and managers in light of the climate crisis, growing social and political inequality, polarization, and alienation, and global uncertainty. Our aim is to foster a rich and stimulating debate that will inspire new ways of thinking and lead to actionable insights for managers, policymakers, and researchers alike.

The program features keynote speeches, panel discussions, and paper presentations, as well as ample opportunities for networking and informal conversations. We hope that the conference will be a catalyst for further collaborations, and that it will contribute to advancing the field of management.

Once again, we are thrilled to invite you all to join us for EURAM 2024 here in Bath, and we look forward to an exciting and productive conference.
