The first-ever Nordic Economic Workshop for Early-Career Researchers (NEWER) took place in Umeå from the 20th to the 21st of March 2025. NEWER I attracted 20 participants from 13 universities across the Nordics, plus one from Slovenia. The call for papers was opened on October 31st and closed on 1st December 2024, and we received 52 applications in total. The majority of these applicants (19) were in the third or fourth year of their PhD studies, while a significant number (16) were in the early years of their studies. This workshop provided an opportunity for researchers to network and build connections
The workshop was a great success in general, as most participants highlighted that it had provided excellent networking opportunities for early-career researchers from different countries and universities in the region.
Participants praised the high-quality presentations, particularly the inspiring keynotes, and highlighted the valuable feedback that helped advance their projects.
