4th International Conference on Action Research in Multidisciplinary Perspective of technology social and business science(ICARMP 2026) will be conducted under the theme “Sustainable Innovation and Digital Transformation: Integrating Artificial Intelligence and Knowledge Management for a Resilient Business Future.” This prestigious international forum aims to bring together scholars, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to explore contemporary challenges and emerging opportunities across disciplines through applied research and evidence-based practices.
In an increasingly interconnected and rapidly evolving global landscape, complex economic, technological, environmental, and societal challenges can no longer be addressed through single-discipline approaches. The importance of multidisciplinary applied research lies in its ability to integrate diverse perspectives, methodologies, and theoretical foundations to generate practical solutions with real-world impact. ICARMP 2026 emphasizes applied research that bridges the gap between theory and practice, encouraging innovative thinking and collaborative inquiry across fields such as business, management, accounting, hospitality, sustainability, information systems, artificial intelligence, and social sciences.
The conference theme highlights the growing significance of sustainable innovation and digital transformation as strategic imperatives for organizations and institutions worldwide. Digital technologies—particularly Artificial Intelligence (AI), data analytics, automation, and digital platforms—are reshaping how organizations operate, compete, and create value. Simultaneously, sustainability considerations have become central to organizational strategy, requiring businesses to balance economic performance with environmental stewardship and social responsibility. The integration of AI with Knowledge Management (KM) systems enables organizations to harness data-driven insights while preserving and leveraging human knowledge, thereby fostering organizational learning, innovation, and long-term resilience.
ICARMP 2026 underscores the critical role of knowledge-driven and technology-enabled resilience in navigating uncertainty, disruption, and global change. By focusing on the intersection of AI, knowledge management, sustainability, and digital transformation, the conference provides a platform for examining how organizations can develop adaptive capabilities, enhance decision-making, and achieve sustainable competitive advantage. These discussions are particularly relevant for emerging economies and dynamic industries where digital maturity and sustainability readiness vary significantly.
The 4th ICARMP aims to facilitate meaningful dialogue between academia and industry, promoting collaboration that leads to impactful research outcomes, policy insights, and innovative practices. Through keynote sessions, research paper presentations, panel discussions, and case studies, the conference seeks to advance multidisciplinary knowledge, encourage international research collaboration, and contribute to the development of resilient, future-ready organizations. ICARMP 2026 aspires to serve as a catalyst for applied research excellence and a valuable platform for shaping sustainable and digitally empowered futures.
