ISC will consider unpublished original paper proposals relating to the above topics of interest. International and global perspectives are encouraged. Proposals can be conceptual or empirical, quantitative or qualitative. ISC will accept a relatively small number of high-quality papers that target top tier academic journals. Submitted paper proposals will go through a double blind review and be evaluated based on their academic rigor, relevance, and contribution to the field of strategic management. Accepted papers will be assigned to paper sessions or interactive sessions.

The ISC Doctoral Consortium is coordinated by Gary Dushnitsky and Gino Cattani. 

The winner of the Fiegenbaum Best Paper Award receives a $1,000 prize.
