Conference Information

The theme of the 2013 conference is “Pricing and Retailing”. This conference, which builds on the rich tradition of the pricing conferences first held at Fordham University in 1998, invites research papers related to various aspects of pricing and retailing from both academic and managerial perspectives. The conference will serve as a forum for practitioners and academics to come together and share ideas. The conference co-chairs will arrange a number of both academic and practitioner sessions. This conference precedes the Summer AMA which will be held in downtown Boston from August 9-11, 2013. The conference will be hosted at Babson’s Center for Executive Education (hotel and registration information will be provided on the Babson Retail Supply Chain Institute website).

We welcome manuscripts in the following areas:

• Information processing of price and retailing
• Price sensitivity
• Product/service bundle issues
• Cross-cultural price/retail perceptions
• Fairness in pricing
• Social responsibility issues in retailing
• Pricing/Retail strategy
• Value-based strategies
• Public policy
• Reference price
• Store atmosphere
• In-Store displays
• Merchandising issues
• Retail apps
• Internet pricing & retailing
• Revenue management

These themes are only indicative. Papers outside of these themes with relevance to pricing and retailing are welcome.

Papers accepted for concurrent sessions also can be designated as submissions to the Journal of Product and Brand Management. Please indicate whether you would like to submit your paper for consideration (a) for conference only, (b) for both conference and publication in JPBM.

If you are submitting for the conference only, a 750- to 1,000-word extended abstract is sufficient. For empirical studies, please highlight the key findings. Please submit your paper via email to: PricingConf2013@Babson.edu
