Taiwan Symposium on Innovation Economics and Entrepreneurship

Taiwan Symposium on Innovation Economics and Entrepreneurship is a series of one-day online or in-person conferences hosted by Po-Hsuan Hsu from National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) and Yanzhi Wang from National Taiwan University (NTU) on behalf of the Office of Interdisciplinary Research (OIR) of NTHU and the Center for Research in Econometric Theory and Applications (CRETA) of NTU. In every event, we invite a keynote speaker who is a leading scholar in innovation economics, entrepreneurship, and technology management areas to share his/her cutting-edge research with participants. We also gather a few papers related to innovation and entrepreneurship from scholars in Taiwan, Asia, and all over the world. We hope to establish a platform for researchers sharing similar interests in this direction to know each other, to exchange ideas, and to have in-depth discussions together. In the long run, we are hoping this Symposium will develop into an important research event in Asia for Innovation Economics and Entrepreneurship.

 

So far, we have hosted/will host many symposiums featured by the following keynote speakers (the detailed program of each event is provided in blue link):
