FDIBA Conference 2026
FDIBA Conference 2026

Research Tracks

The conference programme is organised around six complementary research tracks reflecting the interdisciplinary scope of FDIBA Scientific Forum.

Research Tracks

The tracks cover established research fields as well as emerging technologies, new management approaches and evolving educational practices.

Contributions may address theoretical developments, experimental research, computational methods, industrial applications, case studies and interdisciplinary approaches, provided they demonstrate a clear scientific contribution.

Authors are invited to select the track that best matches the principal focus of their work. Contributions that span multiple disciplines may be considered under Track 06: Interdisciplinary Research & Emerging Technologies.

The detailed topics listed under each track are indicative rather than exhaustive. Relevant contributions beyond the listed topics may also be considered.
