The thirty regular issue of The European Journal of Applied Business and Management (EJABM) is now released, featuring diverse research contributions. This edition brings together a broad range of research perspectives, focal points, visions, and topics in the field of applied business and management.

Within this issue, you will find eight original research articles meticulously assessed through a double-blind peer-review system. This rigorous review process ensures the adherence to EJABM's publication and ethics standards while enhancing the scientific quality of the featured articles. As an international scientific journal, EJABM showcases research contributions from both Spain and Portugal in this edition. The content of this issue engages with and deliberates upon the contemporary landscape of research within the expansive domains of Female Entrepreneurship, Tourism, Finance, Sports Performance, Healthcare Marketing, and Corporate Brand Value.

The first article of this issue is “Women Entrepreneurs in Algarve: a case study”. This research aims to evaluate various aspects, including the profile, motivations, and challenges faced by female entrepreneurs. Additionally, the study delves into the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic crisis on their ventures.

The second article, "Tourist Motivations and Trends in the Current Market: A Study on Atomic Tourism," explores the significance of special interest tourism and territorial management in fostering a niche tourism destination, specifically focusing on atomic tourism or nuclear tourism.

The third article, titled "Health Shocks and Financial Vulnerability of the Spanish Population Under Review," endeavors to examine the connection between health shocks and the financial vulnerability (VF) of households in Spain.

The study focuses on a selection of 9 European football clubs during the period from 2016 to 2022.

The fifth article, "Determinants of Access to Healthcare in European Countries," aims to investigate various factors, including the percentage of European citizens facing barriers to healthcare access due to financial constraints, waiting lists, or geographical distance.

The main objective of the sixth article “The role of trustworthy and entertaining content marketing in e-Commerce: Unveiling the key strategies for engaging” is to examine the influence of content marketing on e-commerce and identify key strategies for enhancing engagement.
