ISPIM JUNIOR RESEARCHER LAB Sunday, June 19th 2016. Sheraton Hotel, Porto
ISPIM is organising its flagship Junior Researcher Lab 2016 in Porto, which will be taking place during the XXVII ISPIM Innovation Conference. If you are currently doing a PhD, considering doing one, or just graduated - then the ISPIM Junior Researcher Lab is for you! The ISPIM PhD Community is organised to serve as a platform for young career researchers and PhD students to meet, collaborate, network and exchange experiences with other colleagues, leading researchers and practitioners in the field. It is essentially a community to share ideas and connect while providing valuable support in dealing with the challenges of completing a PhD in innovation management as well as getting started with a post-PhD Career. Yearly, we connect hundreds of early stage innovation scholars making ISPIM one of the most rapidly growing innovation communities for junior researchers. Kindly note: In order to participate pre-registration for the Lab is required (aside from the main conference registration). Click here to register. Further updates will be communicated on this page. In the meantime join the conversation on our LinkedIn page. See you in Porto! Abayomi & the ISPIM team
