Aims and Focus

About the Conference

Organised by MBAcademy in partnership with LSBU UAE, the Dubai Conference 2027 aims to bring together academics, researchers, practitioners and policymakers from diverse disciplines to exchange ideas, share research and engage in innovative and thought-provoking discussions.
All accepted proposals and conference presentations must be delivered in English. Authors of selected papers may also be invited to submit their full manuscripts for consideration for publication in one of our affiliated journals, subject to the journal’s standard editorial and peer-review processes.

Delegate Commitment

MBAcademy and LSBU UAE believe that attending the full conference demonstrates professional respect and courtesy towards fellow presenters and delegates. We therefore expect all presenting delegates to participate for the full duration of the conference. If you are unable to make this commitment, please do not submit an abstract for presentation.
Further information about the Dubai Conference 2027 is available on our website.

Visa Support Letter

If your abstract is accepted and the full registration fee is paid by the specified deadline, MBAcademy can issue an official acceptance and invitation letter to support your visa application. Please note that the issuance of a letter does not guarantee that a visa will be granted, as all visa decisions are made by the relevant authorities.
