LTSE 2026 theme: Future-Facing Education
We invite business and management educators to explore how their teaching, curricula, and learning environments are evolving to prepare students for an uncertain and rapidly changing world.
Future-Facing Education encourages reflection on how we anticipate, respond to, and shape the future of business and management education.
We invite submissions that examine the impact of digital transformation, interdisciplinarity, sustainability, artificial intelligence, inclusivity, and employability on how we teach at undergraduate, postgraduate and executive level.
Interpreting 'Future-Facing Education' in your own way:
To inspire reflection and creativity, this year’s call for submissions is shaped around a set of provocations.
These provocations are open, forward-looking questions that invite you to interpret Future-Facing Education in your own way.
Each provocation encourages you to share ideas, research and practice that explore how business schools can innovate, adapt and thrive in a changing world.
Your submission should engage with the overarching theme of Future-Facing Education. You may choose to align with one or more of the conference provocations, but this is not a requirement.
Provocations include:
Responding to shifting student demographics and expectations
How are business schools adapting to the needs, aspirations and learning behaviours of emerging generations?
Rethinking curricula for societal, economic and cultural renewal
How are educators redesigning programmes to prepare graduates for futures and careers we cannot yet imagine?
Facilitating interdisciplinary learning to tackle grand challenges
What new forms of collaboration are helping students connect knowledge across disciplines to address complex, real-world problems?
Enhancing critical thinking, creativity and judgement in a digital world

Remember:
Your submission should engage with the overarching theme of Future-Facing Education. You may choose to align with one or more of the conference provocations, but this is not a requirement.
