With the theme “Accounting and Institutional Infrastructure”, this interdisciplinary conference aims at bridging the academic-practice gap through big data research and exchange of a wide spectrum of accounting knowledge. We welcome academia and practitioners worldwide to gather in Macau to share insights and incubate ideas for innovation and development, and we encourage diverse research topics from local indigenous accounting issues to global contemporary sustainability. Selected papers will be published in a special issue of APJAE on condition that they meet the APJAE quality standards.
