2nd ACCOUNTING FORUM CONFERENCE
June 1-3, 2026
Bucharest University of Economic Studies,Bucharest, Romania
(Academia de Studii Economice din Bucuresti – ASE)
We invite accounting (and non-accounting) academics from all geographic areas to submit papers and share their ideas at the 2 nd Accounting Forum Conference on June 1-3, 2025, which will be hosted by the Bucharest University of Economic Studies (ASE), Faculty of Accounting and Management Information Systems.
Accounting Forum publishes authoritative yet accessible articles which advance our knowledge of theory and practice in all areas of accounting and related subjects, and welcomes papers with an
interdisciplinary approach in these areas. Through our conference, we aim to promote greater understanding of the role of business and accounting in the global environment, and provide a forum for the intellectual exchange of academic research covering a range of topical issues and contemporary developments in accounting and related fields.
In line with Accounting Forum’s vision, the theme 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.
Attendees will include academics, practitioners and PhD students at all levels of experience, and involved with all aspects of theory and practice in accounting and related disciplines. The conference will be open to submissions from across the broad spectrum of accounting research and will also offer a Meet the Editors session.
Keynote Speaker
We are delighted to announce that our inaugural plenary keynote speaker will be Joanna Krasodomska from the Krakow University of Economics, Poland.
