The researchers of the professorship International Business are organized in a ‘Knowledge Circle’, a platform where professionals in both business and education meet to share their ideas, interests, concerns and latest developments with the purpose of synthesizing, creating and disseminating knowledge. More in general, all staff of the International Business School of the Hanze University of Applied Sciences are part of the ‘Knowledge Circle’.
