Keynote at the ERSA-Conference

Custom Field Value: May 08, 2024

I am invited for a keynote at this year’s conference of the European Regional Science Association (ERSA) that takes place from August 27 -30 on Teceira Island, Azores, Portugal. My presentation on „Persistence and Change of Regional Entrepreneurship in the Long Run“ is scheduled for Thursday, August 29, 14.30-16.15h. In this lecture, I will provide an overview of the recent research on the long-term persistence and change in regional entrepreneurship. I will discuss alternative explanations of the patterns found. A focus will be on the implications for theory development and regional-level policy. I will identify the main open questions and promising avenues of further research in this important new field.
