The American Enterprise Institute and the Council on Public Policy present Transatlantic Law Forum: The Business of Law at Bucerius Law School in Hamburg, Germany, Sept. 3-4, 2009.
Business litigation in national and international courts is a business, and it is increasingly international. The judicial decisions and doctrines that govern the field are the subject of torrents of law review articles. But we know much less about the institutional aspects of business litigation–the organization of international courts and the strategies, incentives, and organization of corporate interests and their lawyers. How and to what extent do those interests attempt to shape the legal environment, and with what results? How do private corporate litigants fare in European and American courts–and what should we expect for future business litigation?

The Connecticut Law Review’s fall symposium will be The Subprime Crisis: Moving Forward, Oct. 2008. (The journal’s website does not list a specific date.)
The standard subprime conference focuses on yesterday’s issues - i.e., definitions of subprime loans and why the subprime crisis happened. In this conference, in contrast, we will focus on the challenges that lie before us. It came as a shock to policymakers around the world that this seemingly obscure corner of the U.S. consumer credit market morphed into global contagion. Similarly, the United States is groping toward solutions to revive the credit markets and resolve millions of foreclosures. Necessarily, the symposium will be interdisciplinary in nature, involving the intersection of economics, finance, and law.

Proposals to Advance Measurement of Entrepreneurship and Innovation in the United States, 2008 Kauffman Symposium on Entrepreneurship and Innovation Data - proposals due May 13, 2008.
The 2007 Kauffman Symposium on Entrepreneurship and Innovation Data brought together over 100 researchers and data providers to examine thirty-eight new and recently updated data sets. While the availability of these data sets is exciting and promising for research, substantial gaps exist in our knowledge bout innovation and entrepreneurship remain. One path for advancing our current understanding of entrepreneurship and innovation is to enhance existing data collection efforts through such means as adding questions, revising existing ones, and modifying methodologies.
The Kauffman Foundation will host the 2008 Kauffman Symposium on Entrepreneurship and Innovation Data in order to provide a forum for proposing and discussing changes in data collection efforts. As with the 2007 event, researchers, data providers, and policy analysts will be invited. The Symposium will be held in November 2008 in Washington, DC.
In preparation for the Symposium, the Kauffman Foundation seeks to commission a series of short papers proposing incremental changes in existing U.S.-based data efforts that would significantly advance the study of entrepreneurship and innovation over the next five years.</blockquote>Full call for proposals is here.
