The workshop offers an opportunity and venue for practice and academia to meet to engage with contemporary issues relating to accounting in Europe. It is likely to be of value to those who are interested in the harmonisation of accounting in Europe, the regulation of financial accounting and the process of change in accounting and accounting regulation, as well as the internationalisation of accounting generally.
As in previous years, the workshop offers parallel sessions in which academic research papers will be presented and discussed, as well as plenary sessions in which key note speakers from practice and regulatory or standard setting bodies inform on practical implications of current developments in accounting harmonisation.
Key dates:
Deadline for submission of papers: 30 April 2011

Venue:
The workshop will take place at the University of Bamberg, Germany, which has a very internationally oriented faculty of social sciences, economics and business administration.
Because of the impressively well preserved architectural ensemble in the Old Town, Bamberg was awarded the title of UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1993. The successful mix of imposing architectural styles and baroque town houses lend the town an atmosphere that captivates visitors as soon as they arrive.
