Research at ALBA takes two forms:
1. Academic research that formulates and tests original theories and hypotheses on a wide range of management issues. This activity leads to the creation of new knowledge which is published in top academic journals;
2. Applied research, which deals with the generation of new practical applications for business.

Applied Research
The Applied Research & Innovation Department was established in 1995 and has conducted since then more than 30 research projects. Most of the applied research projects are financed by Public Funding Bodies such as the EC or Greek Ministries. However, there is a number of research activities which are self-funded by ALBA and focus on the creation of new knowledge for the societal well-being. The main objective is to awaken the Greek Business community and to provide them with useful research results that will enable them to improve and prosper. On the other hand, in the framework of funded research projects there are several research outputs and dissemination activities that promote the ‘responsible’ research profile of ALBA.
