Baden-Wuerttemberg Cooperative State University (DHBW) for the 2022 MOBTS International conference. We are the first higher education institution in Germany which combines on-the-job training and academic studies and, therefore, we achieve a close integration of theory and practice, both being components of cooperative education. With around 34,000 enrolled students, over 9,000 partner companies and more than 145,000 graduates, we count as one of the largest higher education institutions in the German Federal State of Baden-Wuerttemberg. Founded on March 1, 2009, DHBW traces its roots back to the Berufsakademie Baden-Wurttemberg. Today the university continues to carry on the highly successful tradition of cooperative education. We are passionate about teaching innovations, centered on improving the quality of teaching and learning.</span><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto'><o:p></o:p></span></p><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><hr size=1 width="100%" noshade style='color:#3C4858' align=center></div><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0in;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent;font-variant-ligatures: normal;font-variant-caps: normal;orphans: 2;text-align:start;widows: 2;-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;text-decoration-thickness: initial;text-decoration-style: initial;text-decoration-color: initial;word-spacing:0px'><b><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto;color:black'>Conference Theme</span></b><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0in;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent;font-variant-ligatures: normal;font-variant-caps: normal;orphans: 2;text-align:start;widows: 2;-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;text-decoration-thickness: initial;text-decoration-style: initial;text-decoration-color: initial;word-spacing:0px'><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto;color:black'>The core purpose of this conference is to bring together management educators from around the world, from the Australasian region, from America, from Europe and other countries.
