KIN Summer School 2026

KIN Summer School 2026

Digital innovation has become a major topic of study in the field of information systems and organization science. As a result, scholars need to understand in more detail how to study knowledge-intensive practices that emerge from the interplay between (new) technologies and new ways of working as well as the management thereof.

A significant group of scholars, spread over Europe and the US/Canada, are using various practice and process approaches to study such new ways of working, innovating, and organizing and publishing in a growing number of related international journals. During the KIN summer school, we will bring together a varied selection of scholars to share academic insights and experiences. During four intensive days, participants and faculty members will discuss research in Digital Technology, Knowledge, and Innovation. Each year we invite a different group of faculty members, considered the top international scholars in the field. Also, each year we select 20 participants based on their fit with the topic and experience with research. Potential participants - late-year doctoral students, post-doc researchers, and young faculty members – are invited to send in their applications.  

The 14th edition of the KIN Summer School starts on from Sunday July 5 and ends on Wednesday July 8. In this edition, the KIN Summer School hosts the following international group of professors:  Natalia Levina (New York University, USA), Anastasia Sergeeva  (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, The Netherlands), Neil Pollock (University of Edinburgh, Scotland), Magnus Mähring (Stockholm School of Economics, Sweden), Marleen Huysman (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, The Netherlands).

The KIN Summer School is organized by the KIN Center for Digital Innovation of the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam in collaboration with the Amsterdam Business Research Institute (ABRI)
