BuR - Business Research

Official Open Access Journal

During the last three years, the VHB has successfully established the open access journal ‘BuR – Business Research’ (BuR). BuR is a worldwide-accessible open electronic journal and publishes articles in five areas of business research: accounting, finance, management, marketing, and operations and information systems.

Members of the VHB, as well as the general public, have free access to the BuR website under http://www.business-research.org/. All articles and supplemented material are hosted there for free download. BuR also offers the opportunity to sign up for its newsletter service.

Every researcher is welcome to submit articles along with supplementary material coinciding with our submission guidelines. Please take note that only papers written in American English will be accepted. All manuscripts are subject to a double-blind review process designed to maintain the top quality of our published articles. Authors publishing in BuR will be read worldwide and have their articles listed in international databases.
