Schumpeter@100: Firm Dynamics, Growth, and Heterogeneity

To mark 100 years since Joseph A. Schumpeter joined the University of Bonn (Wintersemester 1925/26), the Center for Advanced Studies: Finance and Inequality (CASFI) will host the conference „Schumpeter@100: Firm Dynamics, Growth, and Heterogeneity“, to be held February 19–20, 2026 at the University of Bonn.

The conference will bring together researchers from macroeconomics, finance, and economic history to discuss new insights into firm dynamics, growth, and inequality. The program will consist of two half-day sessions, providing ample opportunity for presentations and discussions.

Confirmed speakers include Marc J. Melitz (Harvard University) as keynote, along with scholars from around the world.
