About

The 1st Indo-French Research Conference on Production Networks, co-organized by the Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode and the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, is scheduled to be held at the IIM Kozhikode Campus, Kerala, India, on 22 March, 2025.

The world economy is highly interconnected system wherein millions of firms, spread over dozens of countries, buy and sell from each other. This web of interrelations between firms is called the world's "production network".

Our futures as firms and nations are deeply intertwined, for we buy from one and sell to another. There is no walking away from our profound interdependence. All we can do is ask how our actions affect others via the production network, and what we can do together to manage the world's production network. We welcome research papers examining the world's production networks from various perspectives, including economics, statistics, public policy, and management.
