SEEK Workshop on Corporate Philanthropy

 

Topic

The Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW) in Mannheim and the VU University Amsterdam (Netherlands) are pleased to announce a workshop on "Corporate Philanthropy". The international workshop is located within the framework of the research programme "Strengthening Efficiency and Competitiveness in the European Knowledge Economies" (SEEK). It provides a platform for the discussion of recent scientific contributions related to the topic of corporate philanthropic activities. The event encompasses a broad methodological and thematic spectrum. Empirical and experimental approaches to corporate philanthropy are just as welcome as theoretical models. We encourage submissions from economics, business administration, sociology, psychology, law and other disciplines.
