The 24th Innovation and Product Development Management Conference (IPDMC) will be held from Sunday, June 11th to Tuesday, June 13th, 2017, at Reykjavik University in Reykjavik, Iceland. The associated doctoral workshop will take place from Saturday, June 10th to Sunday, 11th June, 2017.
IPDMC has established itself as the leading annual international conference in the domains of innovation management and new product development. Papers presented at the meeting come from multiple disciplines. Adjacent areas such as technology management, entrepreneurship, marketing of innovations, creativity, and design are significant parts of the programme.
The conference has become the focus of important networking among innovation and product development management researchers, for PhD students and junior faculty as well as senior faculty. It is the annual event for researchers in the field and serves as the annual meeting of a virtual society with participants enjoying coming back to meet colleagues. The ambiance is know as friendly and supportive.
Unlike in previous years, the 2017 conference does not have a specific theme. This is intended to signal the inclusive nature of the conference and the community of innovation and new product/service development researchers who participate. Submissions covering leading edge topics and new trends are welcome.
After the Conference, the Conference Board and Scientific Committee will encourage selected authors to submit their papers for review to the Journal of Product Innovation Management or Creativity and Innovation Management.
If you are interested in presenting a paper at the conference, please submit your extended abstract of about 500 words before November 4, 2016 (24:00 - midnight)
