Luleå University of Technology, Sweden,

This is a call for papers for the 2nd “Entrepreneurship and innovation in Nordic education” conference to be held at Luleå University of Technology, Sweden, June 15th-17th in 2010. The conference is held in the city of Luleå, famous for its bright summer nights, the beautiful world heritage listed church village in the old town, and the large and accessible archipelago.

The conference focuses on entrepreneurial learning in all levels of the school system. Entrepreneurial learning concernes learning for traditional entrepreneurship as well as learning aimed to empower and emancipate students for any future role in society. With this call we want to invite researchers, practitioners and politicians interested to share ideas and learn more within the field of entrepreneurial learning. The aim of the conference is to develop theory and practice in entrepreneurship training and education for the benefit of the participators.

In this conference both practical (i.e. from teachers or administrators in the school system) and academic (i.e. from researchers) contributions are welcome. The conference language will be Scandinavian (i.e. Swedish, Norwegian and Danish) or English.

The best academic papers presented at the 2nd “Entrepreneurship and innovation in Nordic education” conference will be considered for an anthology about Entrepreneurship education: Transfer of best practice or for a special issue of International Journal of Entrepreneurial Venturing (IJEV) on “Entrepreneurship education and training”.
