Over the last fourteen years FEBA has organized a series of international annual conferences on current economic and/or business problems. As co-organizers were involved leading researchers in economic, social and institutional problems of transition economies and economies in the period of accession to the EU from USA, Switzerland, Germany, Greece and France. The participation of young researchers and PhD students was especially encouraged by providing a special forum for them. All the research contributions have been published in the annual journal of the University or in special editions.
