    On behalf of the Strategic Management Society (SMS) and ISM University of
    Management and Economics in Vilnius-Lithuania, we invite you to attend
    the "Strategic Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Transitioning and
    Emerging Economies " Extension on October 11, 2012. You may participate in
    this Extension without attending the main SMS conference. Doctoral
    students and junior faculty are welcome!

    REGISTRATION
    There is a US$ 85.00 registration fee (for current SMS members) which must
    be paid directly to SMS via the following link:
    http://prague.strategicmanagement.net/registration/extensions.php. The fee
    is $105 for General members. The registration fee includes a light lunch,
    coffee/snacks and gala dinner.

    PROGRAM OVERVIEW
    The day-long Extension will focus on how smaller, dynamic economies are
    trying to carve out a niche in a global economy. Participants will have an
    opportunity to engage interactively with leading scholars and peers about
    important 'Strategic Innovation and Entrepreneurship' research and
    teaching issues.
