European Technology & Operations Management (TOM) Day

European Technology & Operations Management (TOM) Day

The European Technology & Operations Management (TOM) Day brings together, on a yearly basis, academics from European business schools that work on related topics. The purpose of the conference is to present and discuss latest trends and research in the field, and to develop and strengthen relationships among research groups in Europe. The conference has a single track of 30-min presentations, distributed among doctoral students, junior faculty, and senior faculty. Founding members of the TOM Day, as well as the virtual TOM Seminar Series, are the Judge Business School, HEC Paris, IESE Business School, INSEAD, the London Business School, and the UCL School of Management.

We welcome you to the third installment of the European TOM day at IESE Business School!
