12th WEST COAST RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM ON TECHNOLOGY
ENTREPRENEURSHIP
SEPTEMBER 4 - 5, 2014
http://theWCRS.org
Theme: Technology Entrepreneurship
Location: University of Washington, Seattle Campus
Date: September 4 - 5, 2014
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 2014 conference will be held
at the Foster School of Business, University of Washington, 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 2014 we especially
encourage submissions from authors examining emerging phenomena such as crowdfunding,
accelerators, and social-media driven entrepreneurship.
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conference steering committee invites the submission of unpublished working papers that advance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
Wednesday, September 3, 2014.
The DEADLINE for submitting papers is Monday June 2, 2014.
Please submit papers online at the WCRS conference website:
