Some Essentials

Academicians are interested in sending empirical research papers to Implementasi Manajemen & Kewirausahaan (IMKA), must write their manuscripts at least 4000 words, excluding pictures, tables, and references. The submitted manuscript must be written in Indonesian or English. Authors should declare that the accepted manuscript is truly belongs to them and is not sent elsewhere for publication.
