Preface: 5th International Conference on Economic Management and Corporate Governance (EMCG 2025)

The 2025 5th International Conference on Economic Management and Corporate Governance (EMCG 2025) was held in Montreal, Canada from July 26-27, 2025. It brings together more than 40 researchers from industry, government, and academia. We invited submissions of papers on all topics related to economic management, business information systems, decision sciences, corporate governance, market structure and pricing. The conference provides opportunities for participants to share ideas, designs, and experiences on the future directions. The conference will feature a high-quality technical & experiential program dealing with a mix of traditional and contemporary hot topics in paper presentations and high-profile keynotes. The conference model was divided into three sessions, including oral presentations, keynote speeches, and Q&A discussion. In the first part, some scholars, whose submissions were selected as the excellent papers, were given about 10-15 minutes to perform their oral presentations one by one. Then in the second part, keynote speakers were each allocated 30-40 minutes to hold their speeches. Their insightful speeches had triggered heated discussion in the third session of the conference. The EMCG 2025 proceedings are a compilation of the accepted papers and represent an interesting outcome of the conference. All the papers have been through rigorous review and process to meet the requirements of international publication standard. We would like to acknowledge all of those who supported EMCG 2025. The help and contribution of each individual and institution was instrumental in the success of the conference. We would like to thank the technical committee for its valuable inputs in shaping the conference program and reviewing the submitted papers. The Organizing Committees of EMCG Montreal, Canada
