BERD@NFDI Research Symposium on June 10 and 11 at the University of Mannheim

The BERD Research Symposium, organized by the consortium BERD@NFDI, is scheduled for June 10-11, 2024. The event encompasses conference-style sessions and a young researchers’ colloquium, fostering collaboration and exchange of information in research in business, economics, and social science.
