Dear colleagues,
The Behavioural Science Centre<http://behsci.stir.ac.uk/> at the University of
Stirling Management School, the Aberdeen Centre for Research in Energy Economics and
Finance<https://www.abdn.ac.uk/business/research/acreef/index.php>, and the Scottish
Experimental Economics
Laboratory<https://www.abdn.ac.uk/business/research/scottish-experimental-economics-laboratory-seel-277.php>
are delighted to announce a joint workshop on "Designing Markets for a Sustainable
Future: From Experiments to Behaviour" scheduled to take place on Friday, 31 May
2024, at the University of Stirling.
The aim of the workshop is to create a platform for policymakers, academics, and industry
professionals to exchange knowledge and discuss practical and academic solutions related
to the design of policies -- including the role of competition policy -- and markets in
addressing sustainability and environmental issues.
The keynote speakers for the event are Professor Tim Cason from Purdue University and
Laura Smart from the UK Competition and Markets Authority. The agenda will feature
presentations from academics from Stirling and Aberdeen, as well as a panel discussion
with industry and organisation experts. The final agenda will be shared soon.
Registration is free, but the places are limited. Please register your attendance by
