Liu Attends Academy of Management Annual Meeting With Over 13,000 Scholars

Jian Liu, Erasmus+ Project Administrator and Researcher at Wittenborg University of Applied Sciences, attended the 85th Annual Meeting of the Academy of Management (AOM 2025), held from 25 to 29 July at the Bella Center in Copenhagen, Denmark.

The AOM Annual Meeting is the largest gathering of management and organisation scholars worldwide. It provides a platform for researchers, academics, students and practitioners to share knowledge, network and address key challenges facing management and organisations today.

“This meeting is a valuable opportunity to engage with the latest research and connect with colleagues from around the world,” Liu said. “It brings together a diverse group of people, from experienced scholars to students, all focused on understanding and improving management practices.”

Liu attended professional development workshops where leading experts discussed topics such as artificial intelligence and emerging organisational phenomena. “The sessions were very informative and offered new perspectives. The mix of panel discussions and interactive workshops created a dynamic learning environment,” he explained.

As a young researcher, Liu made a point of networking with scholars from different institutions. “I took the opportunity to speak with presenters and participants whose work resonated with mine. These informal conversations were valuable for learning and exploring potential future collaborations,” he said.

The meeting featured nearly 4,000 sessions including research presentations, workshops and networking events, attracting over 13,400 participants globally.

Looking ahead, the next Academy of Management Annual Meeting will take place in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, from 31 July to 4 August 2026.
