The Chinese Accounting Professors’ Association of North America (CAPANA) invites both members and non-members to submit papers to the 16th CAPANA Annual Research Conference. The objective of the conference is to bring together accounting scholars in North America, Asia, and other parts of the world to discuss a small number of high-quality working papers to promote research collaboration and advancement. The conference is sponsored by and will be held at Hong Kong University’s Business School.

PAPER SUBMISSIONS: Papers in all areas of accounting using all methodologies are welcome. Please submit your paper in PDF format via email to capana2024@hku.hk. The first page of the submitted PDF file should include author details (i.e., name, institution, and email address). The submission deadline is March 15, 2024.

In consideration of the international nature of the conference, the working language of the conference is English. Only papers written in English will be considered. While both China-related and non-China-related papers are encouraged, two slots will be reserved for China-related studies to promote research in this area. Papers by current CAPANA officers will not be considered. Authors will be notified of acceptance by April 15, 2024.
