The CITBA team embraces an environment of collegiality. The CITBA brings together scholars from a range of fields including international business, trade, finance, economics, urban design, knowledge management and IT. CITBA is a think tank, research hub, and network orientated collaborator.
Our centre aims to not only enhance the research performance and productivity of James Cook University, but through our involvement with industry enhance the capacity of firms and industries to compete. CITBA does so by using sound research designs and methods to provide feasible solutions to academic practitioners, government agencies, business owners, industry associations and universities.
While the fields of international trade and business are complex subjects, CITBA’s model is simple: strategise, research and engage.
