We thank our keynote speakers, Mgr. Béla Keszegh, Prof. Dr. Mihály Ormos, and Prof. Dr. László Józsa, as well as the presenters, sponsors, and attendees, for making this such a memorable and impactful event.

On 12 April 2025, Dr. Mohamad-Noor Salehhuddin Sharipudin, a researcher from Universiti Putra Malaysia, visited the Faculty of Economics and Computer Science at JSU within the framework of the National Scholarship Programme.

The conference aims to provide a platform to enhance interactive exchange among academics, researchers, and market segments.
