We are looking forward to welcoming the academic and research community to the beautiful city of Dubrovnik from 15th–16th April 2016 for the 4th International OFEL Conference, hosted by the University of Dubrovnik, Department of Economics and Business Economics.

OFEL 2015 was our third conference to date, with high profile plenary sessions and over a hundred papers presented across 4 major tracks. This year conference is organized with the help of The Edward Bernays College of Communication Management which is the first private institute specializing in communication management and public relations. The OFEL 2016 conference offers a unique opportunity for scholars and practitioners interested in the issues related to governance, management and entrepreneurship to share their thinking and latest research findings.

The keynote speaker at the OFEL 2016 Conference will be Professor Alessandro Zattoni, Ph.D., LUISS – the Guido Carli Free International University for Social Studies. Rome, Italia. Keynote title: ‘Corporate governance: to incentive efficient value creation and to promote fair value distribution’.

In conjunction with the OFEL conference an academic writing workshop was held by the Academy of Management (AoM) MOC Division for early career researchers from Universities in South East Europe. We are very pleased to announce that the academic writing workshop will be held as a part of the 2016 conference, which will once again enrich the experience of all participants.

We would like to invite all scholars, post-graduate students and doctoral candidates interested in any of these fields of research or practice to join us in shaping the future of our discipline in a friendly and supportive environment.
