8th WEST COAST RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM ON TECHNOLOGY ENTREPRENEURSHIP
AUGUST 27 – 28, 2010
Theme: Technology Entrepreneurship
Location: University of Oregon
Date: August 27 – 28, 2010
We invite authors to submit papers to our research symposium, a lively forum for the exchange of ideas among scholars interested in technology entrepreneurship. The 2010 conference will be held at the University of Oregon, in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, a spectacular setting at this time of year. Papers focusing on entrepreneurship and innovation in technology-based settings will be given preference. In addition to our broad focus on technology entrepreneurship, for 2010 we especially encourage submissions from authors interested in entrepreneurship that promotes sustainable business practices, commercializes clean technologies, and/or advances social welfare.
We expect to host an intimate conference of 40 leading scholars from around the world. The conference steering committee invites the submission of unpublished working papers that advance the state of knowledge on the above topics. Conference registration and meals are complementary. A doctoral consortium sponsored by the Kauffman Foundation will precede the conference on Thursday, August 26.
The DEADLINE for submitting papers is Friday, June 25, 2010.
Please submit papers online at the WCRS conference website:
We hope to see you in Oregon this summer!
