The 29th McMaster World Congress is jointly sponsored by the Management of Innovation and New Technology (MINT) Research Centre and the DeGroote School of Business, McMaster University (widely recognized as Canada’s most innovative university!). This event will be held January 16-18, 2008 in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
The event is recognized globally as the largest and most prestigious conference of its kind. It brings both academic researchers and students together to present, discuss and review the latest issues and trends in management research and practice.
Previous conferences have attracted almost 4,000 delegates (academics, students and practitioners) from over 40 countries. Now in its 29th year, this conference promises to be bigger and better than ever.
We are also proud to announce the 5th Annual Edvinsson / Saint-Onge Best Student Paper Award. This prize ($2,000) will be awarded to the outstanding student paper resented at the conference in the area of “intellectual capital development”.
Paper submissions can be conceptual, theoretical, empirical, experimental, or case studies. Accepted papers will be published in full or in abstract form in a CD of proceedings. Prizes will be awarded for the best papers. Selected papers will be published in a Special Issue of the Journal of Intellectual Capital (Editor: Rory L. Chase) See here:
