Tiivistelmä
In October 2010, ”Contemporary Views on Business” highlighted not only current research but also the business opportunities and the future perspectives on the development, management and sustainable deployment of business operations. This international Conference actively sought to promote synergies between business and academia and raised awareness on the potential benefits of research for business activities. Combi2010 was an important forum for knowledge co-creation and intellectual exchange.
Combi2010 was hosted by four Universities of Applied Sciences from the larger Metropolitan region (Laurea, HAMK, LUAS, Helsinki Metropolia). A rigorous double-blind peer review process conducted by 65 reviewers from 24 countries, led to close to 50 full-length scientifi c paper and abstract presentations.
Furthermore, the Conference programme consisted of close to 30 invited international speaker presentations, practicums and special sessions topped with an 3-hour tutorial. As part of the Conference social programme, Combi2010 participants were offered an opportunity to visit one of the seven Unesco World Heritage sites in Finland Suomenlinna Fortress, the Finnish Science Center, and National Park. Business Site Visit took place at Vantaa Innovation Institute.
Combi2010 would like to express its gratitude to the Foundation for Economic Education for its financial support, to Viking Line and City of Vantaa for sponsoring not only the Conference Awards but also cruise gift vouchers for each Combi2010 participant, to its partners ICC Finland, SIVECO Romania SA, ECR Finland, the Regional Organisation of Enterprises in Uusimaa, International Network for Scientific Information, International Journal of Technology Diffusion and International Journal of Management Information Systems and to the event patrons Dr Alexander Stubb, Minister for Foreign Affairs of Finland and Mr Mauri Pekkarinen, Minister of Economic Affairs.
