2025 Annual Conference Program | MIT
Relive the 2025 ISA Annual Conference at MIT with the full conference program. Held June 4-6, 2025, at MIT’s Samberg Conference Center and Sloan School of Management, the gathering brought together more than 225 attendees and over 230 research papers from 100+ institutions and 10 countries.
The program captures the sessions, plenaries, special panels, and events that shaped the three days: digitalization and ecosystems, the future of energy and biotechnology, comparative industrial policy, workforce development, supply chains in a geopolitical era, and a tribute to Richard Lester and the legacy of industry studies at MIT.
Whether you joined us in Cambridge or are exploring what ISA research looks like, the program is a window into the work and the community behind it.
