Society for Business Ethics

The Society for Business Ethics & its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee are delighted to announce the continuation of two exciting initiatives that promote access to the Society for Business Ethics 2025 Conference in Copenhagen. SBE is providing two tiers of assistance: Registration & Membership Fee Waiver: This program is targeted to any scholar for whom attending the annual conference would present a substantial financial hardship. It includes a waiver of the registration fee and one year of SBE membership. The application is quick and easy—simply sign a statement of need and provide your contact information. 25 waivers are available on a first-come-first-served basis. Only individuals who intend to meaningfully participate for the entirety of the conference should apply. Having a paper accepted is not a precondition of receiving a waiver. Apply here: https://lnkd.in/e4AXBn6w Travel Grant Program: This program provides financial support to individuals from under-represented geographies. Three applicants will receive one year of SBE membership, a conference registration fee waiver, and a $1000 stipend to defray costs for travel and accommodation at the conference. Applicants must provide a statement of interest, some basic financial information, biographical background, and their submission for the conference. The DEI Committee will evaluate applications on the basis of need and promise. Apply here before Friday, March 7: https://lnkd.in/ehdCEQvG   PLEASE NOTE: This program is entirely separate from the SBE conference submission and acceptance process.

This year, IABS is re-launching the Strategic Initiatives program, with a more specific focus of supporting research development in regions and countries beyond Europe and North America where the majority of IABS’ members reside and work. Whilst we welcome all proposals that are committed to further our strategic objectives, we are particularly interested in proposals that seek to contribute to the development of research in locations not currently well represented in IABS’ membership. Current IABS members from any region or country can submit a proposal. Examples of proposals supporting research development include manuscript development workshops, research incubators, and team research projects drawing in scholars from these areas.

Junior Scholars Network: The Society of Business Ethics Junior Scholars Network (JSN)—connecting PhD students, postdocs, and junior faculty interested in business ethics research—is working to elect new organizing committees. The JSN is open to all non-tenured scholars and exists as a flexible, diverse, open, and inclusive group that embraces new ideas and hosts events (such as “meet the editor,” “meet the author,” and paper development workshops) based on the needs and interests of its members. If you are interested in helping shape the future of the JSN by joining an organizing committee, visit https://lnkd.in/gmFgd5vs to contact us. We look forward to continuing our collaboration and supporting early-career scholars in business ethics!

The Society for Business Ethics is committed to addressing ethical issues in business, upholding integrity, and promoting principled practices. We do not accept sponsorship from corporations. While this policy reflects our values, it also constrains our financial capacity to sustain and grow impactful programs.

Your support is essential to advancing the society's mission and ensuring the success of this global gathering. Learn more here how your sponsorship can make a difference: https://lnkd.in/gSZ4i9DX
