About the Consortium

The Management in Emerging Markets Consortium aims to foster collaboration among scholars, researchers, and practitioners dedicated to advancing the understanding and development of emerging markets. The consortium serves as a platform for sharing knowledge across institutions and across borders, facilitating research collaborations, and supporting the growth of junior faculty and doctoral students.

The consortium represents a unique opportunity to advance the field through collaboration, innovation, and shared learning.

What We Do

Annual Conference

An in-person conference each year, hosted by a member school, where the community gathers to present new work and meet the people behind the papers — the anchor of the consortium’s calendar.

Virtual Seminar Series

Online seminars through the academic year, each pairing a presenter with a discussant — a standing venue for sharing work in progress and refining it between conferences.

PDWs and Symposia

Professional development workshops and symposia at the major management conferences, including AOM and SMS — supporting mentorship, new collaborations, and the growth of doctoral students.
