Accepted papers will be published by Springer Nature as part of the Springer Proceedings in Business and Economics book series (SPBE). Full paper submissions of up to 16 pages and short paper submissions of up to 8 pages (including references) should be prepared according to the guidelines and submitted through the Easychair conference submission system.
