The 10th International CINet Conference 2009 will be held from 4-8 September, in Brisbane, Australia. The theme of the conference is: "Enhancing the Innovation Environment".

Continuous innovation is the ongoing process of initiating, developing, operating and improving new and existing configurations of products, market approaches, processes, technologies and competencies, organisation and management systems. As organisations strive to achieve a synergistic balance between short-term oriented, operationally-effective exploitation strategies and longer-term, flexibility-oriented exploration strategies, the rapid growth of the global knowledge economy has placed learning at the centre of this critical balance.

Both academics involved in research on innovation and change and practitioners and consultants involved in management innovation and change are invited to submit papers relevant to the conference theme and the various tracks listed above, or simply register for conference attendance to gain access to leading research and practice experience outcomes in this key area. Also academics interested in sharing industry experience are welcome.

Deadline abstract submission: 9 March 2009. More information can be found on the conference website.
