29TH Costa Rica Global Conference on Business and Finance (29th GCBF): Changes related to COVID-19
Due to the global spread of COVID-19 and global travel restrictions, we have moved the 29th GCBF Costa Rica to an online format only. The event will be held, as originally scheduled, May 26-29, 2020. We will offer scheduled virtual presentations along with poster presentations, PowerPoint presentations and pre-recorded presentations. We are confident that this format will provide a positive experience and will enhance your research productivity during these difficult times. We regret that this change is necessary. However, the safety and well-being of our conference attendees and hotel personnel are our top priority.
The logistics for conference, registration, proceedings and award submissions will follow our usual format. In the coming days, conference attendees will receive additional details on how to participate in the virtual and internet sessions.
