Dear ONE friends,
It is my pleasure to announce that we at University of Surrey Business School (35 min south of London) are going to host the very first Academy of Management Specialized Conference (18-20 April, 2018), whose theme will be on "Big Data and Managing in a Digital Economy". The Big Data/Digital Economy theme is an exciting and relevant theme cutting across academic disciplines, and we hope that the Call for Submissions will stimulate a number of exciting proposals. The ethos of the conference is to be multi-disciplinary, relevant, and leading-edge.
This groundbreaking three-day conference will include a mix of dynamic and collaborative sessions, with keynote speakers, symposia, paper sessions, interactive roundtable sessions, hands-on active learning workshops and more. Developed in collaboration with the BPS, HR, MC, OB, OCIS, OMT, ONE, SIM, and TIM Divisions, this exciting new conference is articulated around six track themes.
We expect over 400 participants from all over the world to come to Surrey on this occasion. We invite you to get involved and to submit or encourage your colleagues to submit proposals. We hope you will be inspired to contribute, as well as to enjoy the Conference and benefit from the opportunities for networking and visibility it will provide. The deadline for proposals (short proposals, not full papers) is Oct 3, 2017.
I was leading the original proposal and I am now on the conference steering committee. Hence, I will make ONE interests are well-represented. It would be great to have ONE research well represented at this inaugural effort at a new AOM conference format
Thanks for sharing this to your networks.
Looking forward to seeing you in Surrey,
Alberto
