The second year of Annual International Conference on Business and Public Administration (AICoBPA) brought the theme “Advancing Business and Public Administration in The Age of Innovation: Priorities, Risk and Opportunities.” This theme arises based on the idea that the world faced a dynamic situation and requires innovation to sustain it. In this circumstance, public and business administration is inseparable from priority, risk, and opportunities. Under two subtopics namely public administration and business administration, AICoBPA aims to invites all academicians and practitioners to spread information and positive recommendation to support the business and public administration in the innovation era.

The conference attended by more than 250 participants and attracted 117 authors from six countries (Malaysia, Singapore, Mozambique, Myanmar, Indonesia, and China) and various regions across Indonesia. After going through several review processes, 75 papers were received with a “revision required” status. However, only 60 papers were successfully revised and submitted to the committee. Twenty-two reviewers reviewed all papers that entered the committee.
