    University Research Parks and Incubators: A Paper Development Workshop
    Friday, Aug 3 2012 3PM - 5PM at  Boston Hynes Convention Center, Room 109

    We would like to invite researchers studying university research parks and incubators to participate in a paper development PDW at this year's Academy of Management.

    This workshop brings together scholars interested in the research parks and incubators that universities use to foster technology-based entrepreneurship to explore the latest thinking and empirical findings on the ways in which these institutions differ and; whether and how those differences affect a range of outcomes of interest to different stakeholders (park managers, universities, park firms, local communities). The workshop will consist of roundtable discussions of participants' working papers followed by a workshop-wide discussion of emerging themes, findings, and opportunities for collaboration.

    How to Participate
    If you have a relevant working paper/research in progress and would like to participate in this workshop then simply email to one of the organizers a title and abstract of your research by July 1.
