Call for Papers: The Implications of Digital Globalization in International Business at AIB Insights
Submission Deadline: April 30th, 2026
This special issue invites concise, thought-provoking articles that illuminate how digital transformation is reshaping IB practice, research, and education. We especially seek applied, actionable, experience-based insights that help managers, educators, policymakers, and researchers make sense of, and act upon, the digital shifts redefining global business.
One topic of interest for IE Scholars for this Special Issue is:
“Explore opportunities and challenges in emerging markets: What new pathways are opening for entrepreneurs and firms in developing economies thanks to digital globalization? How can they seize these opportunities? What growing pains do firms face when transitioning into digital-first business models, and how can they overcome them?”

AIB Insights is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes Actionable International Business Insights. Short (~2500 words), topical, thought-provoking articles should be akin to written “TED Talks”, with an applied/actionable focus that is heavy on insights, but light on references, jargon, and methods.
