    The Built Environment and Spatial Segregation of

    Neighborhood Organizations and Entrepreneurs

    A workshop sponsored by the NIAS-Lorentz program

    Location: Amsterdam/Leiden, the Netherlands

    June 17th-21st 2024

    Understanding local patterns of connectivity that sustain neighborhood organizations and entrepreneurs has been a longstanding topic of multidisciplinary research. This week-long interdisciplinary workshop aims to generate discussion on how the built environment affects neighborhood organizations and entrepreneurs, and to what extent it exacerbates urban spatial inequality. Academics from the fields of entrepreneurship, sociology, economic geography, urban studies, and geospatial data science, will weigh in on the distinct theoretical and empirical challenges related to studying this topic. The workshop will feature the following confirmed esteemed guests and keynote speakers: Martin Ruef (Duke University), Olav Sorenson (UCLA), Mario Luis Small (Columbia University), Nicole Marwell (University of Chicago) and Sunasir Dutta (University of Minnesota).

    The workshop is open to all – from early-career researchers (PhD, PostDocs), mid-career scholars to senior professors, working in diverse academic disciplines.

    Registration and Program Details: December 2023

    This workshop is part of a 2023-2024 NIAS-Lorentz Fellowship and organized by

    Laura Dupin (University of Amsterdam), Floris Vermeulen (University of Amsterdam) and Mingshu Wang (University of Glasgow).
