We are delighted to welcome you to the 11th Annual Entrepreneurship as Practice Conference, which will be hosted at the University of Liverpool Management School, 7-10 April, 2026.

As a research community, this conference aims to advance our understanding of entrepreneurship-as-practice, foster network ties, facilitate collaborative writing relationships, and build a strong community of practice scholars.

Building on this tradition, our theme for the eleventh edition of this conference will be “Entrepreneuring and Knowing From the Inside: A Dialogue between entrepreneurship processes and practices”. More details can be found here:

The conference also includes several opportunities to learn from keynote speakers, participate in roundtable discussions, and network with EAP scholars. You can also participate as an audience member in the presentations and give feedback on PDW papers. We will have special breakfast mentoring sessions for PhD students and early-career scholars.
