Call for Papers - 2015 NABET Annual Meeting – a Peer Reviewed Conference


The Thirty-eighth NABET Annual Meeting will be on October 22nd and 23rd, 2015 at the Day’s 
Inn, State College, PA.


The Northeastern Association of Business, Economics and Technology invites papers for 
presentation at its Annual Meeting. The meeting provides an opportunity to present new research 
and discuss a variety of current issues in business, economics and IT. This is your chance to get 
involved with a dynamic, regional academic organization. To be considered for the program, 
please submit one of the following:

  • An abstract (between 100 and 250 words), or
  • A proposal for a workshop (e.g., innovative teaching techniques), or
  • A proposal for a special session (e.g., economics of healthcare), or
  • A proposal for a panel discussion or symposium.

Presentations at the Conference can be based on completed papers, or work that is still
in-process.

Completed papers that are submitted by September 30, 2015 will be eligible for the Best Paper 
Award.

Topics in the disciplines of business, economics and information technology qualify for the 
conference.

NABET is a politically non-partisan organization. Therefore, papers that primarily focus on
political, religious, gender or other societal/political topics will be considered inappropriate for
the NABET Conference.

Papers presented at the Annual Meeting will be eligible for publication in the Peer Reviewed Conference
Proceedings.

Publication in The Journal of the Northeastern Association of Business, Economics 
and Technology (JNABET) is also possible after successful completion of a double-blind review 
process. Submission to JNABET requires completion of a submission process that is mutually 
exclusive of the NABET Conference. This process will be discussed at the Conference.

In order to submit your abstract/paper/proposal for the 38th NABET Conference, please complete
