AMSWMC25
Marketing in a Multicultural and Vibrant World
Marketing as a discipline constantly evolves and adapts to diverse and changing environments, from subsistence and developing markets to hyper-developed environments dominated by technological advances, and from tradition to modernity. The AMS WMC takes place in Africa for the first time in its history, a vibrant and unique place to explore these issues.
Situated within the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, the island of Mauritius offers a captivating blend of natural beauty, modern infrastructure, and multicultural ambiance.
Mauritius, often referred to as the "Paradise Island" renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, sandy beaches, great golf courses, and lush greenery, provides a sense of tranquility. What truly sets Mauritius apart is its multicultural heritage. The island is a melting pot of different ethnicities, languages, and traditions, and the place to savor the flavors of Creole, Indian, Chinese, and French cuisines.
Mauritius is not only a feast for the senses, but also a thriving business and investment hub. The country's stable political climate, well-regulated financial sector, and favorable business environment attract global companies and entrepreneurs. It is ranked #1 in Africa for World Competitiveness and Ease of Doing Business.
"Mauritius was made first and then heaven, and heaven was copied after Mauritius" (Mark Twain). Welcome to Mauritius and Africa, where intellectual discourse will become an unforgettable experience!

For more submission guidelines including formatting rules, policies, help with easychair login problems, etc., please visit the appropriate links at https://www.ams-web.org/help.
A summary of submission rules is provided here for your convenience.
All questions about the appropriateness of a topic or the status of a submission should be addressed to the chair of the track to which you submit the paper to. The list of track chairs can be found below. The track chairs are the primary point of contact for authors with respect to the review process for the AMSWMC25.
Full paper submissions should not exceed 12 single-spaced pages or 7,000 words in total (including all exhibits and references) whichever is less. Text to be Times New Roman 12 pt. font, 1 inch margins, see https://www.ams-web.org/help for detailed formatting information) Be sure to include the title information with each submission but do not include a title page with author identification in the submitted document file. The name of the paper, names and affiliations of each author, and complete contact information for the corresponding author(s) (address, e-mail address, phone) will be requested. Please be sure to spell all author names correctly. Misspelled names create problems in creating the program and effective communication.
It is against AMS policy to submit the same paper or special session proposal to multiple tracks. Also, no individual may be an author or co-author of more than three competitive submissions. Should the limit of three be exceeded, only the first three submissions will be considered for the program and the subsequent submissions will not be eligible to be on the program. Manuscripts will be double blind reviewed. Only papers submitted as full papers can be published in the proceedings as full papers. A full paper may also be published as a one-page abstract.
Structured abstracts submissions should not exceed 4 single-spaced pages following the guidelines at https://www.ams-web.org/help page. A sample structured abstract is linked on the author submission guidelines at https://www.ams-web.org/help page. Structured abstracts accepted for presentation are published as one-page abstract in the Proceedings.
Special session/panel proposals can be submitted through the conference management system to the special session submissions track. Proposals should contain a 50-word bio of each speaker, a one-page description of the session, and a one-page description of each presentation. If the special session contains individual presentations, each with its own unique “talk” title, then each presentation should be entered into the system separately with a unique identifier in the title tying it back to the special session. In other words, if the special session is about “Fun at AMS,” individual “talks” would have a title like: “Fun at AMS: How to Network Professionally at Receptions.” Please contact one of the special session submission co-chairs prior to uploading a proposal submission. Special session/panel proposals will be reviewed, and those rated as highest quality and most in keeping with the conference theme will be accepted for presentation. The program team welcomes all ideas for presentations, workshops, or other sessions that may be of interest to the AMS Fellows. Please contact the appropriate track chairs with your ideas.
