The 2018 edition of the Incentives, Management and Organisation (IMO) workshop will be held jointly with the Economics of Entrepreneurship (ENT) workshop from the 6th to the 7th of September 2018. Participants are invited to stay for the entire workshop - starting in the late morning of the 6th and ending in the early afternoon of the 7th.
We hope that many researchers will be able to join both parts of the event, which will be hosted by Bocconi University. The schedule of the workshops will be as follows:
- Thursday 6th September - Joint Plenary Sessions and Joint Keynote
- Friday 7th September AM - Separate Parallel Sessions and Joint Keynote
The keynote speeches will be given by:
- Steven Kaplan (Booth School of Business, University of Chicago)
- Manuel Trajtenberg (The Eitan Berglas School of Economics, Tel-Aviv University and CEPR)
The Incentives, Management and Organisation workshop series brings together researchers interested in studying the internal economics of firms and other organisations. It covers areas such as organisational economics, personnel economics, management and productivity, incentives and contracts, bounded rationality, and behavioral economics.
The Economics of Entrepreneurship Workshop brings together researchers interested in studying entrepreneurship. We welcome submissions related to incentives promoting entrepreneurship, relevant program evaluations, entrepreneurship and institutions, financing entrepreneurship (venture capital/business angels), experimentation and entrepreneurship, job creation and entrepreneurship, entrepreneurship in the theory of the firm, and entrepreneurship from an industrial organisation perspective.
For both areas, we welcome theory, empirics, and experiments.
