    ·      Location: Foster School of Business, University of Washington 

    ·      Date: September 11-12 2025

    ·      Deadline for Paper Submissions:  May 31st

    ·      Additional Information and Abstract Submission: https://thewcrs.wordpress.com

    We invite authors to submit papers to our research symposium, a lively forum for the exchange of ideas among scholars interested in technology entrepreneurship. The 2025 conference will be held at the University of Washington in Seattle-- the heart of a vibrant technology ecosystem situated on the Puget Sound.  

     

    We expect to host an intimate conference of 50+ leading scholars from around the world. The conference steering committee invites the submission of unpublished working papers that advance the state of knowledge on technology entrepreneurship. Papers focusing on entrepreneurship and innovation in technology-based settings will be given preference. We are open to a wide variety of perspectives on these topics.

    Please note that WCRS rules require faculty members to present. While submissions that include graduate student co-authors are welcomed and encouraged, a faculty co-author will be expected to attend and present.

     

    The deadline for paper submissions is May 31, 2025.

    We hope to see you at the University of Washington in September!
