In this panel studies focused on social entrepreneurship in a broad sense are welcome. Given the current COVID-19 pandemic, research on the impact of the related crisis on social enterprises (e.g. crisis management of social entrepreneurs, changes in the motivation of social entrepreneurs) is of particular interest.

Papers covering operations research, intelligent systems, machine learning and soft-computing methods, their development, analyses and use in the business and financial setting are welcome.
P3) Public Economy
The area of public economics includes all types of allocations and distributions of public money from certain levels of public budgets. The state and its finances play an increasingly important role in economic policy, which is evident especially in the last year. Active economic policy is a key tool in preventing and dealing with the consequences of crises, so it deservedly occupies the forefront of economic policy. Given the current COVID-19 pandemic, research on the role of economic policy in tackling the related issues is of particular interest in this panel.

This is the main task for households, sole traders, companies and the state. Only thoughtful and effective action by all trade mechanism subjects can return the economic performance to pre-crisis levels in a relatively short time. Research on these topics is of particular interest in this panel.
