Elevator Pitch Festival on “Unheard Things in Regional Science” in honour of Peter Nijkamp, TRSA Vice-President, for his 50th ERSA conference

Elevator Pitch Festival (EPF)

The EPF this year will be more spectacular than ever before. We expect more than 100 participants, who will join us on the Boat Le Sirius. The local organizers, Dominique Mignot, Louafi Bouzouina and Yvan Romero, ought to be thanked for their fantastic support, which makes this ERSA conference unbeaten in the rich history of regional science. This main theme will be addressed in two interactive successive sub-sessions, each with a fascinating subtheme, in a time slot of 45 minutes. Each of these two subthemes will be introduced by various pitchers (approx. 5, with a 3-5 minutes speech), to be followed by a vivid interactive discussion with the participants. The programme includes free drinks & finger food.
