About the Initiative

PARCON 2024's theme, Driving Sustainable Change through Business Innovation, showcases the role innovation plays within the business sector in addressing the Sustainable Development Goals.

The 3rd Annual PRME Applied Research Conference (PARCON) 2024, happening on June 25, 2024 at the Newnham Campus, invites students (individual or group) to submit abstracts on innovative business solutions for sustainability. This is your chance to present your research and ideas, and elevate your public speaking skills!

Students can contribute in various forms, including literature reviews, case studies, project proposals, conceptual frameworks, or personal experiences and reflections. Only an abstract (200 to 400 words) is required; no full paper is needed.
