The need to publish in good quality peer reviewed journals has always been critical for academics to progress their careers. In recent years however, an added imperative to publish in such journals has arisen from successive Research Assessment Exercises (now the Research Excellence Framework). In turn, there is increasing pressure upon journal editors to assess a growing volume of submissions and to ensure a fair and comprehensive review system. The road to publication is difficult for all academics but particularly so for early career researchers with limited experience in the process.
Therefore the purpose of this workshop was to enable those seeking to publish their research to meet with the editors of three leading entrepreneurship journals (Entrepreneurship, Theory and Practice; International Journal of Entrepreneurial Behaviour and Research and the International Small Business Journal) in order to discuss, debate and explore how to develop good quality papers.
The intention of this workshop was to explore the publication process so that participants gain confidence to develop an informed and strategic approach to their future research and writing aims and objectives.
