Dear Colleagues,

Welcome to the first annual conference of the Academy of International Business,

Western United States chapter (AIB-W). We are thrilled with the enormous interest in

this inaugural event. The AIB-W chapter’s purpose is to provide AIB members with

opportunities to present their research, exchange ideas, and establish professional

contacts in the field of international business.

AIB-W is a chapter of the Academy of International Business (AIB), the leading

association of scholars and specialists in international business. The AIB’s membership

now exceeds 3,000 scholars, researchers, practitioners, officials, and others from around

the world. It also includes 18 chapters worldwide, such as AIB-W, whose goal is to

facilitate knowledge exchange and networking in a more regional setting.

The success of our chapter would not be possible without the efforts of our many

supporters and friends. I am especially grateful to our Program Chair, Dr. Nila Wiese,

who has expended enormous efforts to make this conference a success. We are also

obliged to the conference authors, reviewers, panelists, participants, and volunteers,

without whom this event would not be possible. We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the

University of Washington Center for International Business Education and Research for

providing the venue for this inaugural 2015 conference.

Seattle is the leading city in the U.S. Pacific Northwest region and one of the sixth

largest ports in the United States. It is a vital hub for international trade and investment,

with particular focus on the Pacific Rim. The Seattle region is home to world-class

multinational firms. It is an outstanding venue for the 2015 conference, and provides a

wonderful opportunity to learn and converse on numerous topics vital to international

business.

Very best wishes for a great conference, and thank you for your participation!
