Call for Papers for Network F

KITE: Knowledge, Innovation, Technology and Entrepreneurship

 

SASE Annual Meeting 2024

27-29 June 2024

University of Limerick - Limerick, Ireland
"For Dignified and Sustainable Economic Lives: Disrupting the Emotions,
Politics, and Technologies of Neoliberalism"

 

FIXED Deadline for Submissions: 19 January 2024

 

Network F focuses on innovation and entrepreneurship as well as its underlying technologies and knowledge sources. We welcome papers from a variety of perspectives, including institutional, strategic, managerial, ethnographic, historical, and behavioural approaches. These may pay attention to the variations of knowledge, innovation, technology and entrepreneurship across cities, regions, and countries. We are keen to advance new research methods, including the use of artificial intelligence, machine and deep learning, automated text and visual analyses, big data analysis and ethnographic approaches. To advance our understanding in these areas, we call for papers asking:

 

• How have, or how can, innovation policies or programs address grand societal challenges like climate change, rising inequalities, or digitalization?
• Are the politics and policies of innovation, entrepreneurship and digitalization shifting toward new paradigms in the current era? If so, how and why - and with what effects?
• How have innovation and technological developments, as well as entrepreneurship and digitalization affected (or been affected by) national models of capitalism?
• Which institutions shape the emergence of innovation or entrepreneurial ecosystems? As well as social innovation and social entrepreneurship, digitalization, and knowledge work?
• How do firms' management and strategies enhance innovation or entrepreneurship?
• How does the platform economy contribute to or alter the dynamics of innovation?
• Are university-industry linkages changing in character or importance in innovations systems? How, and with what effects, are universities adapting practices to enhance entrepreneurship and innovation?
• What new methods are available to study innovative dynamics? Given that in some nations, regions, or firms, researchers have limited access to the field, are there new models or methods - like the use of AI - that can be effectively employed to study innovation dynamics?

 

Our network welcomes proposals for single paper submissions, or for panels. We do not, at this stage, require complete papers to be submitted; all you need to do is submit an extended abstract of no more than 500 words. Please submit proposals through the links found here: https://sase.org/conference-submission/
