4th Meeting between Support Network Stakeholders and Researchers
Tuesday, July 10, 2018, from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Montpellier Management Institute, Building B and Student Union – Richter Space
Target audience: Professors, professionals
Entrepreneurial support has undergone major changes over the past decade.
Driven by strong entrepreneurial momentum and the spread of start-up culture, those involved in entrepreneurial support are being forced to reinvent their practices. Academic literature echoes these transformations, and professionals are eager to analyze and understand the impact of these changes on their operations and on entrepreneurship itself. However, meetings between researchers and practitioners in the field of entrepreneurial support remain relatively rare.
The aim of the 4th Meeting between support network stakeholders and researchers is to promote the exchange of views on entrepreneurial support practices and, beyond that, to initiate a forward-looking discussion on winning strategies.
Both an academic conference and a genuine forum for exchange between researchers and professionals, the 4th Meeting between Support Network Stakeholders and Researchers is issuing two calls for papers, one dedicated to academic contributions and the other to presentations by professionals.
