Management <https://coming.gr/iccm2021-call-for-papers/>**(ICCM2021) , 
1-5 August 2021 (**https://coming.gr/iccm2021-call-for-papers/ 
<https://coming.gr/iccm2021-call-for-papers/>**), hybrid conference 
(both face to face and remotely), Athens, Greece***

The *Communication Institute of Greece <http://coming.gr/>** (COMinG) 
*organizes its

*6^th  Annual International Conference on Communication and Management 
(ICCM2021),**
*1-5 August 2021, both face to face (in Athens, Greece) and 
remotely (for the participants that might still face travel restrictions)**

with the endorsement of *King Graduate School at Monroe College, USA* & 
*Media Informatics Lab, School of Journalism and Mass Communication, 
Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece.*

After the organization of seven (7) successful Annual International 
Conferences (see the *Previous Conferences of COMinG 
<https://coming.gr/previous-conferences/>*), the *6^th  Annual 
International Conference on Communication and Management (ICCM2021) 
*aims to provide an opportunity for academics, professionals, and 
industry experts from various fields, with cross-disciplinary interests, 
to discuss the future directives and innovations in communication and 
management.

We seek to build bridges between academia and professionals in the 
domains treated by this interdisciplinary conference. As a result, in 
addition to traditional panels, we welcome ideas for laboratories, 
workshops, and seminars to demonstrate projects, exchange and discuss 
ideas, and share best practices in relation to the conference themes.

This year, apart from our face-to-face conference, we also propose and 
promote online participation, as some countries/participants might still 
face travel restrictions. Even if remote participation will only require 
half the normal registration fee, we will do our best to give 
participants equal possibilities to exchange, share, and communicate, 
like the F2F participants.

This year we propose four thematic panels, with the purpose to cover 
four important themes:

a) Panel on ‘International Leadership and Management’ 
<https://coming.gr/panel-on-international-leadership-and-management/>

b) Panel on “Multidisciplinary Approaches to New Media Technologies” 
<https://coming.gr/panel-on-multidisciplinary-approaches-to-new-media-technologies/>

c) Panel on ‘New Horizons in Journalism’ 
<https://coming.gr/panel-new-horizons-in-journalism/>

d) Panel on Sustainable development
