The Searle Center on Law, Regulation, and Economic Growth (Northwestern University School of Law) is issuing a call for original research papers to be presented at the Third Annual Conference on Internet Search and Innovation, June 21, 2012 (noon) – June 22, 2012 (3 pm). “The conference will cover academic work on Internet search and innovation and the discussion will examine related public policy issues in antitrust, regulation, and intellectual property.”
Attendance for this conference is by invitation only. Potential attendees should indicate their interest in receiving an invitation by sending a message to Derek Gundersen at dgundersen [at] law.northwestern.edu.
The deadline for submitting papers is Feb. 7, 2012.
The conference is organized in cooperation with the Journal of Economics & Management Strategy (JEMS), which is edited by Daniel F. Spulber. JEMS encourages submissions on Internet search and innovation. Submissions are independent of the conference. Authors presenting papers at the conference need not submit to JEMS and are welcome to publish their work in other venues (with appropriate acknowledgement of the Searle Center).
Papers prepared for the conference will be permanently hosted on the Searle Center website. mw
