The conference brings together various stakeholders to discuss the drivers and patterns of productivity growth, with particular attention to the role of research and innovation, digital technology adoption, trade, and competition.
This event features a call for empirical papers that examine the recent slow-down in productivity growth, the growing dispersion in productivity levels across firms and countries, and firm-level dynamics, including the effects of job reallocation, and business entry.
Interested authors should submit their papers to multiprodoecd [dot] org (multiprod[at]oecd[dot]org) no later than 15 July 2025, close of business.
For further information and selection criteria please consult the enclosed call for papers.
