Announcing the Jan-Benedict E.M. Steenkamp Award
for Long Term Impact in IJRM

The International Journal of Research in Marketing (IJRM) and the European Marketing Academy (EMAC) are proud to announce the establishment of the IJRM long term impact award starting in 2009. Named “The Jan-Benedict E.M. Steenkamp Award for Long Term Impact”, the award will be given annually to papers published in IJRM that are perceived to have made a long term impact on the field of marketing.

The concept, criteria and procedure for the Steenkamp Award were assembled by a team comprised of Stefan Stremersch and Don Lehmann (IJRM editors), Hubert Gatignon (EMAC VP of Publications), Eitan Muller and Marnik Dekimpe (IJRM Associate Editors).

A committee has been established by the IJRM editor(s) and the EMAC VP of Publications to oversee the nomination and selection of the inaugural award in 2009. The committee comprises: Peter Danaher (Chair), Russ Winer and Peter Verhoef.

The winning paper will be announced during the annual EMAC Conference.

Eligibility

Papers eligible for the Steenkamp award should have been published in IJRM 10 to 15 years prior to the year the award is being presented. For the 2009 award, this means all papers published in the years 1994 through 1999 inclusive.

Criteria

The following criteria will guide the Steenkamp award committee in choosing the winning paper: (1) the paper’s ISI citations; (2) the votes it receives from the IJRM Editorial Board (resulting from two rounds of voting), and (3) the paper’s quality, as assessed by the award committee’s in-depth reading the paper.

Procedure

Firstly, nominations will be called from EMAC members and IJRM Board members. Nominations close on 1 January 2009. Then, IJRM Board members will vote on the nominated papers in two rounds. The final winner will be determined by the Award Committee using the criteria above.

Submitting a nomination

Nominations can be submitted by either current EMAC members or IJRM Board members.

Between 15 November 2008 and 1 January 2009 nominations should be emailed to Cecilia Nalagon [editors-ijrm@few.eur.nl].

Please submit the title of the paper, authors, volume and issue number.
