At Georgia State University's Institute of International Business (IIB) our talented faculty nurture a 'global ready' and 'career ready' student body that impresses employers with global mindset, analytical skills, and social consciousness. The IIB aspires to deepen our study of 'Responsible Global Business.' We seek to promote global business innovation where all participants act conscientiously to environmental, societal, and governance imperatives. Our research and teaching emphasize dynamic linkages of multiple stakeholders in international business. These include, but are not exclusive of, all sizes of multinational organizations, emerging economies, the diverse and underserved communities in Georgia and Southeast U.S., and the globally mobile labor force amongst migrants and refugee communities. We are keenly attentive to intercultural coalitions, inclusion, and sustainability. The IIB faculty's research aims to inspire innovations in global integration and entrepreneurship among stakeholders across countries, regions, organizations, and individuals.
