We welcome submissions addressing the GBATA tenth international conference theme: EVOLUTION AND REVOLUTION IN THE GLOBAL KNOWLEDGE ECONOMY: ENHANCING INNOVATION AND COMPETITIVENESS WORLDWIDE.

The theme is designed to encourage submissions that take unique perspectives on the critical issues related to multi-cultural, economic, technological, social, legal, and regulatory challenges that public and private industries and organizations encounter. The author must specify paper(s) by track number, list two track numbers if appropriate, and up to four key words that describe the paper(s). Authors may seek guidance on matching their work to a track by contacting Dr. Nejdet Delener, Conference Chair (E-mail: GBATAdelener@oldwestbury.edu).

The Conference will include contributed paper sessions, invited and plenary presentations, case studies, round tables, panels, workshops and forums. The accepted papers will be published in the Conference Readings Book. The Conference will provide a unique international forum to facilitate the exchange of cutting-edge information through multi-disciplinary presentations.

• Electronic submissions are strongly encouraged (pdf format). Electronic submissions are to be directed to the Conference Chair (E-mail: GBATAdelener@oldwestbury.edu)
• A maximum of two papers can be presented by one person.
• Alternatively, submit three (3) typed, double-spaced copies of your abstract or full paper or panel proposal. Abstracts should be a maximum of three pages, and the full paper should be a maximum of fifteen double-spaced pages including references and exhibits. The more complete the paper, the better its chances of acceptance in the review process.
• Each of the three copies should include a separate title page which clearly indicates the name(s) of the presenting author(s) and other co-author(s), affiliation(s), complete mailing address(es), telephone/fax numbers and e-mail address(es), title of the paper, track number and up to four key words that describe your paper.
• The text of the full paper, abstract or proposal must include the title, but should not include the name(s) of the author(s) as papers will be blind reviewed. Accepted papers will be included in the Conference Readings Book.
• Each hard-copy submission should be accompanied by a stamped, self-addressed post card clearly indicating the title of the submission. Return of the post card will acknowledge receipt of the submission by the Conference Chair.
• Submissions must not have been published, submitted or presented at other conferences.
• Special scheduling requests (dates or times) must be made at time of paper submission.
