Papers
Presenters will have the opportunity to receive feedback from leading scholars and participate in the assembly discussions. Each paper session will feature three paper presentations followed by a discussant and open Q&A.
We seek complete submissions (40 pages, double-space, 12pt font, one-inch margins) of papers that demonstrate novelty, sound theory, and rigorous research design, with the potential of making important contributions to the study of innovation and cooperation. By submitting a paper, you commit to presenting it upon invitation. The invitation is personal and cannot be transferred to a coauthor.
Submitted papers should include a title page with the paper's title, listing all authors and their affiliations, specifying keywords, and an abstract of up to 200 words. We discourage submission of papers that are at or beyond the stage where the paper has already received a second round 'revise and resubmit' invitation.
Deadlines
The deadline for submissions is February 16th, 2025. The paper submission page will open in December 2024 at the conference website.
Submissions selected for presentation will be notified in late March.
