In recent years, economists have begun to apply the tools of industrial organization (IO) to an ever-growing set of industries. This conference will showcase how canonical IO concepts like supply, demand, imperfect competition, and strategic interactions can be applied to a broad set of general markets and economic questions, such as housing markets, school competition, environmental regulation, and health care.

This conference is by invitation only. Please contact bfi-events@uchicago.edu if you have any questions.
