The Department of Economics and International Relations within the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration, "Alexandru Ioan Cuza" University of Iasi, marks a return to the tradition of annual conferences addressing both general and specialised topics. This year's event aims to cover the research interests and concerns of academic staff from peer departments, focusing on Economics, International Business and Cross-Cultural Communication.

We believe that the above-mentioned topic is a balance point in the context of the frequent small and large-scale changes taking place in international economic relations, within nations and regional trade agreements.

The conference will also include a section for students and two round tables – Teaching Economics and International Business and Challenges in LSP Teaching.
