International Business, Strategy and Innovation

We’re sharing new ideas to help managers make better sense of globalisation and the digital economy.

Our research in this area brings together expertise from multiple disciplines including economics, sociology, psychology, anthropology, information systems and political science.

The international business environment is highly turbulent and complex. The problems facing managers and organisations in today’s global economy are typically centred on the need to enhance practices and cross-cultural collaborations that cut across different international contexts.

Our research seeks to address several of the most pressing needs in international business. We’re also exploring issues relating to effective strategising and innovation, which are particularly relevant in times of growing economic, political, social and geographical turbulence.
