We are deeply saddened by the passing of Professor Kenneth S. Law of The Chinese University Hong Kong (CUHK) Business School. His loss is a profound one for IACMR and the broader academic community.

Professor Law was an exceptional scholar, a dedicated mentor, and a cherished colleague. His lasting contributions to IACMR and Chinese management research have left an indelible mark. We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.

We thank Professor Law for his contribution toward IACMR. He contributed to one of the IACMR Books “Empirical Methods in Organization and Management Research”, where his rigorous academic approach enriched the field.
