The Nordic Journal of Business (NJB) is a scholarly journal that publishes original scientific research in all fields of business studies. The Journal welcomes submissions of empirical and theoretical papers that contribute to knowledge of business theory and practice.

Aims and Scope

The Nordic Journal of Business is a scholarly journal that publishes original scientific research in all fields of business studies. Different aspects of business theory and practice related, among others, to accounting, corporate governance, entrepreneurship, finance, information systems, international business, management, and marketing are within the scope of the Journal.

The Nordic Journal of Business welcomes submissions of high-quality empirical and theoretical papers that contribute to knowledge of business theory and practice. The Journal is primarily interested in contributions based on the foundational disciplines of business studies, but we also encourage creative approaches and multidisciplinary research that reflects the intricate real-life relationships between functional areas of business. While the Journal provides an international forum for business research, submissions that focus on Nordic research problems or use data from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden are particularly encouraged.
