Call for Papers: Economics of AI Conference
When: February 12, 2026
Where: IESE Business School, Barcelona Campus
Keynote Speaker: Raffaella Sadun (Harvard Business School)
Submission Deadline: December 1, 2025
What are the economic consequences of rapid advances in Artificial Intelligence?
Will AI displace workers and erode privacy - or help tackle climate change and reduce inequality?
Will it increase market concentration or spur entry and competition?
These are crucial questions, yet much remains to be understood about the organizational channels through which these effects occur - how AI transforms decision-making, incentives, skills, and the design of work in firms and public institutions.
The Economics of AI Conference welcomes paper submissions on a broad range of topics, including (but not limited to):
- Innovation and productivity
- Firm dynamics and business strategy
- Organizational economics
- Labor markets, education, and inequality
- Regulation, policy, and the public sector
- Privacy, competition, and national security
Researchers interested in presenting are invited to submit completed papers or extended abstracts to the Economics of AI Conference | IESE Business School by December 1, 2025.
