CIRCLE is hosting a mini conference in Lund on the 11th and 12th of May about “peripheries in polycrisis”.

The Peripheries Workshop offers a welcoming and supportive space for researchers to share work in progress, exchange peer-to-peer feedback, and connect with others working on peripheries across different contexts. Alongside the academic discussions, the workshop also creates time for socializing and includes a spring field visit in Lund.

FEATURED SPEAKERS

  • Markus Grillitsch, Professor in Economic Geography & Director at CIRCLE
  • Robert Bowen, Senior Lecturer in International Entrepreneurship at Cardiff University
  • Rhiannon Pugh, Senior Lecturer in Innovation Studies at CIRCLE & Coordinator of the Peripheries Workshop
