In line with Accounting Forum’s vision, the aim of this conference is to bring together researchers in accounting and related areas from varying viewpoints, approaches and paradigms; provide a forum for ways we might bridge the gaps in our understanding; and broaden the scope of discussions beyond our own research groups. As such, papers addressing any interesting accounting-related research question, using appropriate research methodologies and research paradigms, are welcomed. Innovative approaches are encouraged.

The conference will start in the afternoon of June 1 with the Emerging Scholars Colloquium (ESC) – which aims at introducing emerging scholars, including PhD students and early career researchers, into the accounting research community and providing them an opportunity to present and discuss their research projects alongside a cohort of distinguished international academics – followed by two full conference days. The ESC and Conference dinners, lunches and coffee breaks on all three days will be included in the conference registration fee. The conference will conclude at the end of day of June 3.

Emerging Scholars' Colloquium: Monday, 1 June

Main Conference: Tuesday and Wednesday, 2-3 June

Following the Accounting Forum conference, on June 3-4, ASE will organize the 19th edition of the Accounting and Management Information Systems (AMIS) conference, now part of the EEGAR (Eastern European Group for Accounting Research) established between ASE,  Krakow University of Economics (Poland) and Prague University of Economics and Business (Czech Republic) as a platform to organize a rotating conference. This initiative aims to foster a scientific network for advancement of accounting research in this region. By fostering academic collaboration and knowledge sharing, the EEGAR’s mission is to strengthen the position of Central and Eastern European institutions within the global research community and enhance their contributions to the evolving field of accounting. See www.amis.ase.ro for more information.

A combined (discounted) conference fee will be available to academics intending to attend both events. 

Bucharest University of Economic Studies (Ro. Academia de Studii Economice din București - ASE) was founded in 1913 and currently enrols approximately 22,000 students in 13 faculties across the entire business studies spectrum, delivering undergraduate, graduate and doctoral degrees in the Romanian, English, French and German languages. ASE consolidates its position as national leader in economic higher education, being ranked 1st in Romania and 201-300 overall in the field of Economics, in the recently published Shanghai Global Ranking of Academic Subjects 2025. The university’s magnificent Parisian style iconic building lies in the heart of the country’s capital, indicative of educational excellence, commitment to high quality, and is a testimony of a great past and a very promising future. 

The precise location of ESC and the main conference (the opening ceremony and the parallel sessions) will be made available to conference delegates in due course, accompanied by a map showing the specific building and room numbers, along with instructions on how to reach campus. Delegates interested in booking accommodation early may envisage finding a suitable one around ASE’s main campus location (around Piata Romana) or in the city center (see a list of indicated hotels here).
