About this Seminar Series
The Applied Economics & Analytics Lab at NOVA IMS is pleased to announce the launch of a Seminar Series, which will occur twice a month. This initiative aims to foster intellectual exchange and advance collaborative research within the scope of two FCT-funded projects: 1) RiskGuard: Effective Risk Assessment in Public Procurement (FCT Ref. 2024.07468.IACDC); and 2) KNOW-NET-COMPET: Embedded Knowledge and Networks – Complexity in Antitrust Collusion Mitigation (FCT Ref. 2024.07378.IACDC).
Each session will bring together team members and guests to share findings, discuss methodologies, and explore interdisciplinary insights across both projects’ thematic areas.
