| The Kauffman Foundation will host the 2008 Kauffman Symposium on Entrepreneurship and Innovation Data in order to provide a forum for proposing and discussing changes in data collection efforts. As with the 2007 event, researchers, data providers, and policy analysts will be invited. The Symposium will be held in November 2008 in Washington, DC. In preparation for the Symposium, the Kauffman Foundation seeks to commission a series of short papers proposing incremental changes in existing U.S.-based data efforts that would significantly advance the study of entrepreneurship and innovation over the next five years. The Foundation will provide an honorarium of $3,000 for each paper presented. The Foundation also will also provide travel and lodging expenses for authors presenting papers at the Symposium and pre-conference. A pre-conference workshop is anticipated to be held in July 2008 for invited contributors. Collaboration on proposals is encouraged. Individual researchers may participate in up to two proposals. Electronic submissions of paper proposals are due May 13 2008 at 5pm CST and should be sent to (kauffman@fulfillment-kc.com) with the subject line reading 2008 Kauffman Symposium on Entrepreneurship and Innovation Data. Submitted proposals will be reviewed by Kauffman Foundation staff and an advisory committee of experts. It is expected that selected authors will be notified in early June. Completed papers will be due to the Kauffman Foundation in September 2008. |
