We are pleased to invite you to nominate your doctoral students who are
researching marketing and entrepreneurship to the American Marketing
Association //International Marketing and Entrepreneurship SIG Doctoral
Consortium//. This special interest group of the AMA has a long history
of partnership with the annual UIC Marketing and Entrepreneurship
Research Symposium. At this year’s Research Symposium, we are
instituting a consortium for doctoral students to encourage and guide
students who are considering or are researching the intersecting domains
of marketing and entrepreneurship. This consortium will be held in
Stockholm, Sweden, June 14-16, 2008. The deadline to submit nominations
is April 1, 2008. Please email your nominations to Glenn S. Omura at
omura@msu.edu <mailto:
omura@msu.edu>.
Doctoral students selected for the consortium will have their Symposium
fees waived, have complimentary meals during the official portion of the
Consortium and the Symposium, and have a portion of their hotel expenses
subsidized. Nominations should have the following attachments:
* A letter of recommendation from you
* A letter of interest from the nominee
* The nominee’s vita
The nomination packets will be reviewed for acceptance by the Consortium
Chairs, Claes Hultman (Swedish Business School) and Gerry Hills
(University of Illinois-Chicago).
