Shaping the Future of Education, Business & Technology
Global Perspectives on Education, Business and Technology 2026 (GPEBT 2026) is an international, multidisciplinary academic conference that brings together postgraduate students, academics, researchers, educators, industry professionals, policymakers, entrepreneurs, business leaders, and technology practitioners.
The conference provides a platform for participants to present research, exchange ideas, discuss emerging challenges, and explore how developments in Business, Education, and Technology can contribute to better practice, policy, and decision-making.
GPEBT 2026 is designed to connect academic knowledge with real-world perspectives. Through research presentations, professional discussions, networking opportunities, and engagement with invited speakers, the conference encourages participants to examine current issues from multiple disciplinary and professional viewpoints.
Why GPEBT 2026?
Research increasingly crosses disciplinary and professional boundaries. Developments in digital technology influence how organisations operate, how education is delivered, how people work, and how decisions are made. At the same time, businesses, educational institutions, policymakers, and communities continue to face practical challenges that require evidence-based and interdisciplinary responses.
GPEBT 2026 creates a space where research meets practice. Participants will have opportunities to:
- present original research and receive academic and professional feedback;
- exchange knowledge across Business, Education, and Technology;
- engage with researchers, educators, industry professionals, and policymakers;
- discuss emerging issues, innovations, and practical applications;
- develop academic and professional networks;
- gain perspectives from distinguished keynote speakers; and
- explore publication opportunities for eligible conference papers.
