Corvinus University’s strategic aim in the field of research is to achieve excellence and greater international visibility. To realise this goal, increasing the number of publications in top international journals is of primary importance. However, to publish in a leading academic journal requires familiarity not only with the announced policies but also with the relevant tips and tricks, which can best be clarified by the editors themselves. In support of Corvinus faculty the representatives of some of the most prestigious international journals have been invited to hold online sessions under the series name Meet the Editor. The inaugural event of the series is held by Professor Jiří Jaromir Klemeš, Co-Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Cleaner Production.
