4th Meeting of Support Network Stakeholders and Researchers

Tuesday, July 10, 2018, from 8:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
, Montpellier Management Institute, Building B and Student Union – Richter Hall

Target audience: Professors, professionals

Entrepreneurial support has undergone major changes over the past decade.

Driven by a strong entrepreneurial momentum and the spread of a startup culture, those involved in entrepreneurial support are being compelled to reinvent their practices. Academic literature reflects these transformations, and professionals are eager to analyze and understand the impact of these changes on their operations and on entrepreneurship itself. However, interactions between researchers and practitioners in the field of entrepreneurial support remain relatively rare.

The goal of the 4th Meeting of Support Network Practitioners and Researchers is to foster a shared understanding of entrepreneurial support practices and, beyond that, to initiate a forward-looking discussion on successful strategies.

Serving both as an academic conference and a forum for dialogue between researchers and professionals, the 4th Meeting of Support Network Stakeholders and Researchers is issuing two calls for papers: one for academic contributions and the other for presentations by professionals.
