About the Journal

Focus and Scope

Fórum Empresarial is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal, published twice a year by the Center for Business Research and Academic Initiatives, at the University of Puerto Rico, Río Piedras campus. Its thematic coverage encompasses the fields of Accounting, Business Communication, Computerized Information Systems, Finance, Human Resources, Marketing, Office Management, Operations and Supplies, and Statistics.

The purpose of the journal is to provide a forum for the dissemination of methodologically rigorous articles, which constitute an original contribution to the main areas of knowledge and research relevant to business; in this way, we want to stimulate the exchange of knowledge and experience among the university, businesses, and public authorities, at the international level.

Theoretical and empirical contributions will be considered, specifically research articles and technical-professional articles, in English and Spanish. In addition, professional interviews, presentations, and book reviews that demonstrate compliance with the focus and scope of the journal and academic thoroughness will be considered.

Praxis

Praxis@FAE emerged in 2012 as the Center for Business Research and Academic Initiatives at the University of Puerto Rico, Río Piedras Campus. Its primary purpose was to provide a space for publishing technical and professional articles that addressed practical and applied topics in the Business field, thus fostering the dissemination of helpful knowledge for academics and professionals, complementing the existing academic journal, Fórum Empresarial. This initiative reflected the University's commitment to applied research and the promotion of quality education in business administration. 

Between 2012 and 2015, Praxis@FAE published several volumes currently available electronically in the "Archives" section of the Fórum Empresarial website. In 2017, the journal joined the Fórum Empresarial and has since maintained two regular sections: "Forum," which presents articles with original contributions to the main areas of business research, and "Praxis," dedicated to current work and case studies with a focus on professional practice in business disciplines.
