    Call for Papers
    Artificial intelligence is reshaping how entrepreneurs raise capital, enter markets, innovate, design business models, and engage with ecosystem stakeholders. 
    We invite management, finance and entrepreneurship scholars to submit their cutting-edge research to the AI and Entrepreneurship track at the AI in Finance Conference that will take place in  Concordia University, Montreal, Canada (October 27-30).
    This track explores the transformative role of artificial intelligence at the intersection of entrepreneurship, finance, and innovation.
    We welcome submissions that address (but not limited to):
    How different levels of generative AI adoption influence entrepreneurial fundraising outcomes.
    How AI-driven tools alter investor perceptions, cost structures, and operational efficiency.
    The role of organizational learning, prior experience, and institutional environments in shaping AI-enabled entrepreneurial performance.
    Whether AI democratizes access to finance across gender, ethnicity, or geography-or risks reinforcing inequalities.
     
     
    Submit full papers or extended abstracts to AIfinance@concordia.ca
     (subject line: AI in Finance Conference, Workshop AI and Entrepreneurship) by September 15, 2025.
