SUMMARY:Workshop on Economics of Science & Innovation (EoSI) II
DESCRIPTION:Scientific production and technological innovation are evolving at an unprecedented speed. Digitalization\, artificial intelligence\, and global research networks are reshaping how knowledge is created\, shared\, and commercialized. At the same time\, geopolitical tensions\, climate transitions\, and public health challenges are redefining the strategic role of science in economic development.\nIn this rapidly transforming landscape\, understanding the organization\, incentives\, and diffusion of scientific knowledge has never been more crucial. Scientific research\, whether conducted in universities or corporate laboratories and funded publicly or privately\, operates within institutional and economic frameworks that influence the direction of discovery and the circulation of knowledge. As such\, it has become a central focus for economists of innovation\, management scholars and policy analysts. A growing body of work examines the influence of organisational structures and collaborative practices on research productivity. A relevant area in this realm concerns the evolution of the role of companies in the production of science. From a centralized model\, where the firm covers each side of the innovation process\, has evolved an open ecosystem\, where the division of innovative labor between universities\, startups\, and established firms is the new paradigm. How do these structural shifts and dynamics redefine the innovation ecosystem? At the same time\, attention has turned to global mobility and international networks and how they redefine knowledge flows. Moreover\, literature on the effect of diversity on team dynamics and scientific outcomes is flourishing\, as well as the mechanisms\, such as technology transfers and intellectual property regimes\, that govern appropriation\, and consequently\, the diffusion of innovation across regions and industries.  \nTrack 1 – Gender and Science: Within the realm of the Economics of Science\, a key area of investigation centers on understanding gender differences within academia. Despite strides in gender equality\, ongoing research consistently uncovers disparities in citation rates and publication outputs between male and female researchers  (Huang et al.\, 2020; Larivière et al.\, 2013; Bikard et al.\, 2025). These gender gaps extend across various dimensions\, including research funding\, academic career advancement\, collaboration networks\, authorship positions and peer recognition. Understanding gender gaps in research is fueled by the recognition of the diverse advantages of gender diversity in research; as it sparks innovation (Yang et al.\, 2022)\, leads to more diverse and impactful work (Nielsen et al.\, 2017) and broadens the perspectives in problem-solving settings (Wooley et al.\, 2015). \nTrack 2 – Policy\, Innovation and Technology diffusion: Within the economics of innovation\, escalating environmental challenges have given rise to specialised research streams centred on the green transition. Policy intervention is widely recognised as a critical large‑scale lever to accelerate the diffusion of eco‑innovations (Antonelli\, 2022). Yet their hindered diffusion is partly rooted in structural and knowledge‑based barriers. Green technologies rely on distinctive knowledge recombination processes—marked by diversity\, relatedness\, complexity\, and novelty—which set them apart from conventional technologies. Empirical evidence shows that the presence of\, and the ability to recombine\, advanced local capabilities is a prerequisite for achieving sustainability transitions across their economic\, social\, and environmental dimensions. At the same time\, dealing with such technological complexity entails intensified R&D efforts\, significant barriers to replication\, and spatial concentration\, often clustering in high‑capacity productive regions (Mewes and Broekel\, 2022). These dynamics resonate strongly with the broader literature on innovation and technology diffusion. A substantial body of work has long examined how new technologies emerge and spread\, emphasising that diffusion depends on a varied set of dimensions\, including knowledge recombination\, technological complexity\, spatial dynamics\, and institutional conditions (Berger & Ostermeyer\, 2025; Comin et al.\, 2012; Rosenberg\, 1972; Tsiachtsiras et al.\, 2022). Seen through this lens\, the challenges surrounding green technologies are not an exception but rather an intensified expression of general diffusion mechanisms. This track therefore welcomes theoretical and empirical contributions that explore the determinants\, mechanisms\, and consequences of innovation and technology diffusion across firms\, regions\, and countries. \nTrack 3 – Corporate Science: This track examines the evolving role of private firms within the scientific ecosystem and the diverse linkages between industry and academia (Arora et al.\, 2018; Cohen et al.\, 2002). We welcome contributions exploring the strategic incentives for corporate scientific engagement and the mechanisms of knowledge diffusion between private and public research (Cockburn & Henderson\, 1998; Rosenberg\, 1990). Submissions may address the organizational\, institutional\, or individual determinants of industrial research\, as well as the impact of science-based strategies on firm innovation and broader technological change (Bikard et al.\, 2019; Fleming & Sorenson\, 2004).   \nTrack 4 – Other topics within the realm of the Economics of Science and Innovation: We warmly invite young researchers and scholars to contribute papers exploring the broader realm of the Economics of Science and Innovation. Topics may include but are not limited to the academic job market\, geography of innovation\, corporate science\, science in developing countries\, refugee science\, intellectual property and innovation incentives\, public policy evaluation\, etc. We encourage submissions from diverse perspectives and areas within the field.    \n  \nReferences: \n\nArora\, A.\, Belenzon\, S.\, & Patacconi\, A.

SUMMARY:Climate Change and Its Impact on the Economy\, Business and Society: A Global Perspective [ICCCIEBS-2026]
DESCRIPTION:Climate Change:\nGlobal climate change is the long-term alteration in the average temperature\, largely driven by anthropogenic activities – caused by excessive burning of fossil fuels\, high rate of deforestation\, and growing industrial emissions – that compound the high concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The IPCC AR-6 (2023) observes that the world’s average temperature will increase from the current average of 1 degree Celsius to 1.5 degrees Celsius by 2045 and further to 2 degrees Celsius by the end of the 21st century. Therefore\, the WMO cautions that climate change is not just about rising in average temperatures\, but its broad range of catastrophic socio-economic and environmental effects due to: (i) frequent and intense extreme weather events (floods\, droughts\, heatwaves\, wildfire fire\, and storms)\, (ii) melting glaciers and rising sea levels\, and (iii) disruption of ecosystems and biodiversity. Climate change is not just an environmental issue; more importantly\, it imposes high economic and societal costs on businesses and society at large. Numerous researchers have already highlighted the economic effects of climate change. The worrisome aspect is that developing countries are highly affected if current climate change trends continue. Climate change is a transboundary externality\, and actions to mitigate and adapt must be seen from a global perspective. There is an urgent need for a global response to climate change to reduce the societal costs and increase economic resilience. Climate change impacts exacerbate income inequalities among vulnerable populations and further intensify the existing social inequalities\, creating new challenges for communities in developing economies. Therefore\, the conference calls for deliberations on the intricacies of current economic models and on business and societal needs in the context of climate change. These challenges need multipronged approaches\, not only the availability of finance and technology to mitigate climate change\, but importantly\, a just transition that has profound social and economic impacts on the well-being\, security\, and equity of people worldwide through access to food\, shelter\, water\, energy\, health\, education\, environment\, and their production and distribution system to offer policy solutions. \n  \nObjectives:\nThe major objective of the international conference on climate change goes beyond academic discourse and dialogue\, inspiring policy action\, building consensus among stakeholders\, and strengthening global resolve to combat climate change and secure the future of the economy\, business\, and society. These objectives ensure the conference is not just an academic event but a catalyst for meaningful progress towards a sustainable\, climate-resilient world. \n  \nMajor tracks of the conference:\n1. Present and future trends of climate change: \n2. Drivers and magnitude of climate change: \n3. Impact of climate change on the economy\, business\, and society: \n4. Climate resilience\, mitigation\, and adaptation: \n5. Climate change\, just transition\, and Climate finance: \n6. Climate change and sustainable development goals and \n7.
