Sponsors and PhD student events

We are also very thankful for the support of the Jan Wallanders and Tom Hedelius stiftelse; Tore Browalds Stiftelse and the Handelshögskolans Partnerskapets Internationaliseringsstöd. Their generous, respective grants enable us to subsidize the cost of all young scholars accepted in the PhD student events, so that they paid only 50% of the normal conference fee.

The ISS2024 PhD student events have been very successful this year. These events consist of two activities: On Sunday 9^th June, we look forward to 10 workshops involving 45 PhD students and more than 30 established scholars. Moreover, these PhD students will hang their posters in the Wallenberg venue on Monday 10th June or Tuesday 11th June, with dedicated poster session times during a coffee break.
