NOTE: Against the background of the corona crisis, we have decided not to hold our conference physically at ZEW Mannheim this year. Instead, we are planning a small online conference on 2 July 2020. Please, keep the day reserved! Further information will follow soon.
The objective of the conference is to discuss recent scientific contributions to the economics of information and communication technologies (ICT) and the economics of ICT industries. Theoretical, empirical and policy-oriented contributions are welcome.
