Seminars
The goal for the seminar is to engage with leading scholars in Technological Innovation, Entrepreneurship and Strategic Management. Even in the current challenging circumstances, the seminar remains committed to advancing the research and teaching mission of TIES as well as the broader MIT community. The TIES Seminar will continue to take place in the form of online presentations. Please contact Stephanie Taverna (staverna@mit.edu) if you wish to be added to the mailing list to receive the participation link.
*This Spring, due to changes with the Sloan course schedule, seminar times have been moved to 11:45a-1:00p.*
