10th ENTERYNG Workshop

Posted on by ECSB

The 10th edition of  “ENTERYNG workshop (ENTrepreneurship Research Workshop for YouNG scholars)” was held in the historical town of Pavia, organized by Professor Giovanna Magnani and Professor Antonella Zucchella of the Department of Economics and Management of the University of Pavia in collaboration with University of Bergamo and University of Naples Federico II. The workshop was co-financed by the ECSB – European Council for Small Business and Entrepreneurship.

The “ENTERYNG workshop” represents an opportunity for PhD students and early-career scholars to discuss their research collecting constructive feedback from a group of scholars that gathered around the workshop over the years. In this edition we received 21 submissions from talented PhD candidates and early-career scholars, and all the participants represented 20 different universities.

In addition to facilitating fruitful discussions, in fact, this research workshop supports the development of an international community of early-career researchers interested in entrepreneurship, innovation, international entrepreneurship and family business, connecting them with more senior scholars.

Together with specific feedback on their working papers, participants had the opportunity to attend professional development keynotes by internationally renowned scholars, which are aimed at stimulating provocative reflections on one’s own research and career and at offering practical-oriented advice on doing impactful research.

This year’s edition included keynote speeches by:

  • Professor Arabella Mocciaro Li Destri, University of Palermo (Italy), President of the Italian Academy of Management
  • Professor Diego Matricano, Università degli Studi della Campania “Luigi Vanvitelli” (Italy).
  • Professor Dinorá Eliete Floriani, Universidade do Vale do Itajaí (Brazil).
  • Professor Mats Alvesson, Lund University (Sweden).

This year the workshop also featured a dedicated session with working papers developed within the GRIS – “Growing Resilient Italian SMEs” PRIN Project (2022 2022X9YPZJ) funded by the Italian Ministry of Education and the European Union – Next Generation EU. GRIS is a joint research project of the University of Pavia, University of Palermo and University of Turin.

ENTERYNG workshop received support from the ECSB Event Fund.
