Dear colleagues,


The Behavioural Science Centre at the University of Stirling Management School, the Aberdeen Centre for Research in Energy Economics and Finance, and the Scottish Experimental Economics Laboratory 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.
