On behalf of the organizing committee, I would like to invite you to participate in the 16th EBES Conference, in Istanbul, Turkey, which will bring together many distinguished researchers from all over the world. Participants will find opportunities for presenting new research, exchanging information, and discussing current issues. In the conference, Professor Arch Woodside from Boston College, USA, (the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Business Research which is one of the top scholarly journals globally in marketing) will also organize a workshop entitled “Quantitative and Qualitative Case Study Research and Doing Research for Publishing in SSCI Journals.” Although we focus on Europe and Asia, all papers from major economics, finance, and business fields - theoretical or empirical - are highly encouraged. Qualified papers will be published in the EBES journals (Eurasian Business Review and Eurasian Economic Review) and EBES 2015 Anthology. EBES journals (EER & EBR) are published by Springer. In addition, all the submitted full papers will be included in the conference proceedings CD. After the conference, participants will also have the opportunity to send their paper to be published in the Springer’s series Springer Proceedings in Business and Economics. This will also be sent to Thomson Reuters in order to be reviewed for coverage in its Conference Proceedings Citation Index. Please note that the 10th EBES Conference Proceedings and 11th EBES Conference Proceedings have been accepted for inclusion in the Conference Proceedings Citation Index. Subsequent conference proceedings are under evaluation. Abstract submission for the 16th EBES Conference will start on November 3rd, 2014 and the deadline for the abstract submission is February 28th, 2015.
