We have successfully organized our thirty-first conference on April 15-17, 2020. Due to the COVID-19, the conference presentation mode has been switched to “online/virtual presentation only”. The conference was jointly organized with the Faculty of Economic Sciences, University of Warsaw with the support of the Istanbul Economic Research Association.

We are honored to have received top-tier papers from distinguished scholars from all over the world. We regret that we were unable to accept more papers. In the conference, 98 papers by 171 colleagues from 30 countries were presented. We, EBES, would like to thank all of the conference participants and the Faculty of Economic Sciences at University of Warsaw for their support during the conference.
