ABOUT PRAXIS
Research with purpose.
Connecting people, disciplines and ideas to move knowledge into practice.
Advancing research.
Transforming practice.
PRAXIS is an international academic conference bringing together researchers, scholars, postgraduate students and industry professionals to exchange knowledge and explore contemporary challenges across three interconnected disciplines.
The International Conference on Management, Healthcare Management & Accounting is built around a shared question: how can rigorous research contribute to better decisions and more effective organizations? PRAXIS creates a setting in which academic ideas can be examined alongside the challenges encountered by managers, healthcare administrators, accountants and other professionals.
Its three core domains are Management and Business Sciences; Healthcare Management and Administration; and Accounting, Finance and Governance. These fields meet in everyday decisions about people, resources, service delivery, performance and accountability. Technology—including analytics, artificial intelligence and digital systems—provides a further connection across the research agenda.
The conference welcomes quantitative, qualitative, mixed-methods, conceptual and applied research. It encourages contributions that explain their methods clearly, acknowledge limitations and identify what the work adds to scientific understanding. The ambition is to make academic exchange useful without reducing complex findings to simple promises.
Researchers, scholars, postgraduate students and industry professionals are invited to contribute distinct perspectives. Through presentations, research discussion and opportunities for collaboration, PRAXIS seeks to support a community that continues learning beyond an individual conference edition.
The first edition took place at InterContinental Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, from 17 to 20 October 2026. The second edition is planned for October 2027 in Kuala Lumpur; exact dates, the programme and participation fees will be announced when finalized.

Enhance Research Visibility and Impact
Facilitate the dissemination of research findings through academic presentations, scholarly networking, and appropriate publication opportunities, subject to independent editorial and publishing requirements.
OUR STRATEGY
From shared questions
to informed action.
Our strategic direction sets out how PRAXIS intends to develop its academic programme, relationships and contribution over successive editions.
Focus on meaningful questions
Shape the research conversation around challenges faced by organizations: resilient leadership, quality healthcare, accountable financial management and responsible digital change. Keep a clear connection between each topic and the conference’s three core domains.
Make methods visible
Encourage authors to explain their evidence, analytical choices and limitations. Welcome quantitative, qualitative, mixed-methods, conceptual and applied work, with the appropriateness of the approach taking priority over a preference for any one method.
Create dialogue across roles
Bring academic perspectives into discussion with practitioners’ experience. Planned formats may include research presentations, poster conversations and focused exchanges around organizational problems; each edition’s confirmed programme will specify what is available.
Translate discussion into next steps
Encourage participants to identify a practical implication, a question requiring further investigation or a potential collaborator. Where organizations and researchers agree to work together, define responsibilities and expected outputs before a project begins.
Share knowledge responsibly
Develop clear conference resources and distinguish external reading from accepted contributions. Publish proceedings arrangements, author permissions and any publication or indexing claims only when confirmed.
Learn between editions
Use participant feedback and documented outcomes to improve future editions. Areas for assessment include the relevance of discussions, opportunities for early-career researchers and the progress of collaborations, rather than attendance alone.
THE PRAXIS APPROACH
What shapes
this conference.
These commitments define the experience PRAXIS seeks to build and the reasons to take part in its research community.
A connected research agenda
PRAXIS places management, healthcare administration and accounting in the same discussion, with technology as a theme running across them. This creates space to examine a problem through operational, human and financial perspectives together.
A practical question for every idea
The conference’s research-to-practice focus asks how a contribution might inform a decision, improve a process or challenge an assumption. Practical impact remains an ambition to evaluate, with the limits of each study made clear.
Space for different methods and careers
The intended community includes experienced scholars, postgraduate students and practitioners. Diverse research designs and constructive exchange are part of the conference’s approach to developing stronger contributions.
Collaboration with academic independence
PRAXIS seeks productive relationships with industry while keeping research decisions independent of commercial support. A partnership is a route to shared learning and agreed activity, never a promise of research acceptance or publication.
Applied research
Explore a shared research question with a university or research team, with an agreed scope, responsibilities and appropriate ethical review.
Organizational case studies
Contribute a management, healthcare, accounting or technology challenge for discussion, subject to permission, confidentiality and any necessary anonymization.
Knowledge exchange & workshops
Propose a focused workshop, expert discussion or skills session that addresses a relevant research or professional need. Programme inclusion is subject to review and agreement.
Innovation demonstrations
Discuss how a product, service or digital approach could be evaluated in an academic setting. Demonstrations should disclose commercial interests and distinguish evidence from marketing claims.
Researcher & student support
Explore support for research development or participation opportunities. Any eligibility criteria, funding terms and selection arrangements must be agreed and communicated in advance.
Conference support
Discuss sponsorship or support in kind for agreed conference activities. Recognition, deliverables and permitted use of the PRAXIS identity are defined individually in a written agreement.
From an idea to an agreement
- Introduce your organization. Describe your work, the proposed collaboration and the conference themes it relates to.
- Explore the fit. The organizing team considers relevance, feasibility and the expected contribution to participants.
- Agree the scope. Define activities, responsibilities, resources, confidentiality, intellectual property and recognition as applicable.
- Confirm in writing. Announce a partnership only after both parties have approved the arrangement and any public use of their names or logos.
