The Applied Business & Management Review is an independent, peer-reviewed journal that publishes applied research in the fields of business and management.

The journal welcomes original work that offers evidence-based insights with real-world value for managers, organizations, and decision-makers, both in academic and professional settings.

It serves as a platform for sharing knowledge that bridges academic inquiry and practical application.

The journal follows a biannual publication schedule, with two issues released each year.

The journal publishes all of its content in English, but on a case-by-case basis, it may also publish in French.

Scope

We welcome submissions that explore a broad range of topics across business and management disciplines, including but not limited to: strategy, operations, marketing, finance, human resources, entrepreneurship, innovation, leadership, and organizational behavior. Multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary studies that connect management with areas such as economics, technology, education, and public policy are also encouraged.

Submissions are open to researchers, faculty members, doctoral candidates, early-career scholars, and experienced professionals - creating an inclusive platform for scholarly exchange and dialogue.
