18th Nordic Conference in Behavioral and Experimental Economics

Hanken School of Economics and Helsinki GSE will be hosting the 18th Nordic Conference in Behavioral and Experimental Economics on September 25-26, 2026 in Helsinki.

This yearly conference serves as a meeting point for behavioral and experimental economists active in the Nordic countries, but is also targeted more generally to academic researchers in Europe and beyond.

For questions about the conference, please contact any member of the Organizing Committee.

PhD Course on Behavioral and Experimental Economics

Complementing the conference, we are organizing a hybrid PhD course on Behavioral and Experimental Economics jointly with Lund University. The first lectures of the course will take place in Helsinki on September 24 by the distinguished keynote speakers. The focus of the course will be the interplay between economic theory and experimental evidence, with coverage of both laboratory and field approaches. More information about the course can be found here.
