2017 CCSBE/CCPME Conference

The development of SMEs and entrepreneurship in the new context of globalization

May 11 - 13, 2017, Université Laval, Québec City, Canada

Paper Development Workshop for Doctoral Students and Early Career Scholars

May 11, 2017, 14:30 – 16:30

As part of the pre-conference program for the 2017 CCSBE conference, Journal of Small Business and Entrepreneurship organizes a paper development workshop (PDW) for junior scholars. The aim of the PDW is to provide participants with developmental feedback on their current research projects on entrepreneurship and small businesses in order to help these new scholars advance in the field. Furthermore, we hope that the papers coming out from this PDW will eventually be published in JSBE or other journals. Participation at the PDW is limited. Participants will be invited based on the quality of their submission and they must register for the CCSBE conference to participate in the PDW.

Agenda:

·         14h30-15h30: Panel discussions with JSBE editors and invited senior scholars on how to get published.

·         15h30-16h30: Breakout sessions in which each participant will receive feedbacks from a senior scholar and another participant.

Submission instruction:

Each applicant can submit only one of the following two types:

·         Full research papers (8,000-12,000 words)

·         Paper idea (2,000-3,000 words in length and include a theoretical framework, propositions, and proposed research design).

All submissions should be emailed to JSBE editor-in-chief, Prof. Mai Thai, at mai.thai@hec.ca by April 1, 2017. Participants will be notified about the acceptance of their submissions no later than April 10, 2017. They will need to confirm their participation in the PDW by April 20, 2017 upon which they will be assigned a manuscript to review.

Each participant at the 2017 CCSBE conference will have to register/pay the fees online. Please visit the conference website: www.fsa.ulaval.ca/ccsbe2017
