3rd Industrial Marketing Management Oceania and Asia Summit
28–29 November 2026
University of Auckland Business School, Auckland, New Zealand
Paper submission deadline: 15 September 2026
Registration fee: AUD $150 (inc NZ GST)
The 3rd Industrial Marketing Management Oceania and Asia Summit will bring together researchers with interests in business-to-business (B2B) marketing to share emerging ideas, discuss work in progress, and build collaborative research networks.
Held immediately before the ANZMAC 2026 Conference, the Summit will provide an intimate and specialised forum for advancing B2B marketing research across Oceania, Asia, and beyond.


About the Summit
The Summit will follow a colloquium format designed to support constructive discussion of work-in-progress research.
Participants are invited to present emerging theoretical, empirical, and methodological contributions that can strengthen industrial and B2B marketing research. The programme will encourage feedback, collaboration, and the development of new research ideas.
Building on the tradition of the European and American IMM Summits, and in partnership with the ANZMAC B2B Special Interest Group, the event will contribute to the continued growth of the B2B research community.
Academic–Practitioner Collaboration
We particularly encourage submissions that arise from collaboration between academics and practitioners. Such papers may examine how research has been developed jointly with industry partners to address practical business challenges, generate actionable insights, or advance (B2B) marketing practice. Where possible, these submissions should be co-authored and co-presented with practitioners. Hybrid presentations may be considered, provided that at least one author presents in person.


Submission Guidelines
Papers should follow the ANZMAC 2026 Conference submission guidelines.
