Dear SIM colleagues,
I will be arriving in Philadelphia a few days before the AOM Annual Meeting and wanted to ask whether there are any SIM-related activities, informal meetups, doctoral gatherings, or networking opportunities taking place on 28, 29, or 30 July.
I am a doctoral student working on social entrepreneurship, mission drift, impact fidelity, and purpose-driven ventures, with a particular interest in how organizations preserve their social mission while responding to investor, market, stakeholder, and scaling pressures.
I would be especially interested in events or informal gatherings connected to social entrepreneurship, business ethics, sustainability, impact investing, purpose-driven organizations, responsible innovation, or qualitative research. I would also be happy to connect with other PhD students and early-career scholars arriving before the official programme begins.
If you know of any workshops, local events, pre-conference activities, or informal meetups during these dates, I would be very grateful if you could share them.
Many thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Elizaveta Petrovskaia
