Industry Studies Association DC conference: New Deadline Jan 30!

  • 1.  Industry Studies Association DC conference: New Deadline Jan 30!

    Posted 3 days ago

    Please consider attending the Industry Studies Association Conference in Washington, DC!

    Do you do research that deeply examines a single industry? Do you think your work may have implications to public policy, and would you like to explore those? Do you want to attend a truly cross-functional conference, with like-minded scholars?

    If you said yes to any of these, please consider attending the Industry Studies Association conference June 3-5, 2026, in Washington DC! The Association is an offshoot of the highly influential Sloan Foundation Industry Studies program, which funded such important research streams as the Wharton Banking Studies, California (Berkeley) semiconductor studies, and the MIT International Motor Vehicle Program, which resulted in the book The Machine that Change the World.

    A 250-word abstract is all you need to submit! Due to our using a new website and conference submission system, we are extending the deadline a week: To FRIDAY, January 30th.

    Please consider submitting!
