The Faculty of Business, Economics and Law, Auckland University of Technology is pleased to coordinate the New Zealand Business Research Translation Competition on behalf of the Associate Deans Research of New Zealand Business Schools. The Competition aims to promote the relevance and impact of business and economics research to external stakeholders. Its purpose is to enhance our skills and confidence in communicating our research to wider, non-specialist audiences.
In this context, “Translation” means re-writing a paper based on your journal article that has been published over the last three years. Researchers from eight New Zealand business schools are invited to submit a short paper (700 words) intended for a non-academic audience.
$1,500 for the winner

On 5 July 2022, there will be a celebration and awards ceremony as part of the Research Translation Day at Auckland University of Technology.
