About Madrid Economics

Madrid Economics promotes cooperation and interactions among researchers in Economics based in Madrid.

It is an independent initiative with the support of the Centre for Monetary and Financial Studies (CEMFI), the Madrid Institute for Advanced Studies (IMDEA) Social Sciences, and the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid. Researchers and graduate students from other institutions are also welcome and encouraged to participate in its activities.

Among the activities of Madrid Economics are the maintainance of a combined calendar of seminars and conferences in Economics taking place in Madrid; the organization of a regular joint seminar, the Madrid Microeconomics and Organizations Workshop (M-MIAOW); of an annual Madrid Summer Workshop in Economic Theory (M-SWET); and of other occasional conferences. It also promotes cross-institutional participation in research projects and graduate teaching.

Core funding for Madrid Economics is provided by the Directorate General of Universities and Research of the Comunidad de Madrid through the prociudad-cm research programme. Other public and private institutions provide additional funding for individual activities, and are acknowledged in the corresponding pages.
