About us:

The Research Group for International Business Economics

In 1984 The Research Group for International Business Economics (the IBE-group) was established in connection with the launch of the M.Sc. degree in International Business at Aalborg University. The IBE-group is a part of Department of Business Studies and the general aim of the activities of the IBE-group is to promote research, education and training in the field of International Business Economics.

The research areas of the group are concentrated on four main areas:
    • Globalisation of the economy and the internationalisation of companies and lines of business
    • International Marketing, Procurement and Supply Chain Management
    • Cultural Analysis, Inter-cultural Management and International Organisational Development
    • International Entrepreneurship.

The concept "International Business Economics" is thus defined broadly and covers both exports and imports, outsourcing, investments abroad as well as foreign investments in Denmark.

The IBE-group has established a number of cooperation agreements with universities on all continents in order to initiate and to carry out joint research projects. The group has research projects as well as Ph.D. projects and cooperation with coleagues in Lithuania, Russia, Vietnam, Ghana, Brazil, England and the USA.

The purpose of the international network is to be able to illustrate the internationalisation process from several perspectives, e.g. industrialised countries, transition economies and third-world countries.

The research group's goal is continuously to have 4-5 Ph.D. students in the group at the same time as Ph.D. students from partner universities are registered at Aalborg University.
