This special section of Iperstoria aims at contributing to BELF research by exploring aspects related to how communication takes place in international business-related contexts, with a particular focus on Communication Strategies and on the relevance they have in BELF. Meaning-negotiation enacted through a variety of strategies and moves is indeed a common thread running through the majority of the contributions included in this issue, which explore BELF communication from a variety of perspectives - from methodological approaches to (inter)cultural aspects and pedagogical implications - in different settings, including more recent developments such as social media. It is precisely this variety of settings and perspectives that shows what a vibrant area of research BELF is.
