Researchers who are specialized in regional/urban economics and international trade come
together in order to share their ideas and comment on each other’s research papers. The
meeting encourages interaction and discussion between the researchers, so that new ideas
and joint projects can be initiated. Any theoretical or empirical paper discussing the topics of
economic geography or international trade is welcomed. This includes topics in urban
economics, regional economics, new economic geography, international trade, foreign direct
investment, and the economics of multinational firms.
