On behalf of the organizing committee, I would like to invite you to participate in the 53rd EBES Conference in Madrid, Spain, which will bring together many distinguished researchers from all over the world. Participants will find opportunities for presenting new research, exchanging information, and discussing current issues. Although we focus on Europe and Asia, all papers from major economics, finance, and business fields – theoretical or empirical – are highly encouraged. The conference will be held as a hybrid event which allows the participants to present via Zoom platform and in-person.

Qualified papers can be published in EBES journals (Eurasian Business Review and Eurasian Economic Review) or EBES proceedings books after a peer review process without any submission or publication fees. EBES journals (EABR and EAER) and proceedings books are published by Springer. While EAER is indexed in the Emerging Sources Citation Index (Clarivate Analytics) and Scopus, EABR is indexed in the Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) and Scopus. Furthermore, the qualified papers from the conference will be published in the regular issues of Singapore Economic Review (SSCI & Scopus) after a fast-track review. 

In addition, all the submitted full papers will be included in the conference proceedings in a USB. After the conference, participants will have the opportunity to send their paper to be published in the Springer’s series Eurasian Studies in Business and Economics. This is indexed by Scopus. It will also be sent to Clarivate Analytics in order to be reviewed for coverage in the Conference Proceedings Citation Index – Social Science & Humanities (CPCI-SSH). Please note that the 10th-28th, 29th (Vol. 1), 30th, 33rd, and 34th EBES Conference Proceedings are accepted for inclusion in the Conference Proceedings Citation Index – Social Science & Humanities (CPCI-SSH). Other conference proceedings are in progress.

Abstract submission for the 53rd EBES Conference is now open. I would also like to remind you that the  deadline for  abstract submission is  September 16, 2025. The decision regarding the acceptance/rejection of each abstract/paper will be communicated with the corresponding author within a week of submission.

I look forward to receiving your submissions and seeing you on October 16-18, 2025 in Madrid, Spain.

Sincerely,
