> Organizations and individuals are embedded in networks of social
> relationships, and the positions in these networks are very
> influential to the success and performance of organizations and
> individual alike.
> The INSEAD Conference on Network Evolution is a two day event where we
> will provide a forum for researchers working at the intersection of
> networks, innovation and entrepreneurship. We will request submissions
> that examine the consequences of networks for innovation and the
> identification of entrepreneurial opportunities; as well as the
> reverse effects of entrepreneurial activities on the structure of
> social relationships.
> Our objective is to generate new insights into the
> drivers of the evolution of the social structure as well as to
> stimulate
> dialogue between scholars tackling these issues from an innovation
> perspective. We expect this to be small conference (around 30 papers)
> so that the participants can receive quality feedback from the
> as well as from their peers.
>
> This is the second time INSEAD organizes the conference on Network
