NOITS Conference

Keynote Speakers 2019
Dave Donaldson, MIT
Andrew Bernard, Darthmouth College
Costas Arkolakis, Yale University

About NOITS

NOITS was established in Stockholm, March 1998, at the network’s first annual workshop. NOITS aims to organise annual workshops with presentations by Nordic researchers and graduate students specialising in international economics.

In addition, a few non-Nordic researchers with a considerable international reputation are invited.

Main Purpose

  • First, it facilitates collaborative research and scientific contacts among Nordic researchers.
  • Second, it offers graduate students and junior researchers an opportunity to present their work, and thereby get valuable feedback, as well as to prepare for international workshops and conferences.
  • Third, it is hoped to strengthen the ties between the Nordic academic institutions.

Organizing Committee

The members of the NOITS organizing committee are:

Rikard Forslid, Stockholm University 
Helga Kristjansdottir, University of Akureyri 
Andreas Moxnes, University of Oslo
Jakob Munch, University of Copenhagen
Katariina Nilsson Hakkala, VATT, Aalto University

The local organizing committee in 2019 consists of Rasmus Jøgensen and Jakob Roland Munch. Project and Event Coordinator is Joanna Hagstrøm (jmh@econ.ku.dk).
