48th INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH CONFERENCE IN MARKETING

la londe conference.png

Porquerolles Island (French Riviera), France May 30-June 2, 2023

Unlike previous La Londe Conferences, the 2023 conference will take place at the Igesa resort located on the magnificent and car-free Porquerolles Island in the Mediterranean Sea (in front of the city of Hyères, department of Var, 32 miles from Saint-Tropez and 69 miles from Nice). Rich intellectual exchange between top-level CB researchers from all over the world, friendliness and informality are part of the tradition of the event, greatly enhanced by the beautiful setting in a Mediterranean seashore environment.

The conference has a unique positioning. There are only two competitive sessions occurring at the same time and participants spend more time discussing the paper than presenting it. At each session, both academics and professionals participate in debates, dialogs, and formal presentations. Many participants have established new networks or rejuvenated old ones to exchange ideas and knowledge. In addition to the rich intellectual exchange, the conference provides a visit to the fondation carmignac or to a vineyard in Porquerolles Island.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

We invite the submission of papers providing theoretical or empirical advances in understanding and/or predicting consumer behavior. In addition to papers with a focus on consumers’ responses to marketing communications, we invite papers that provide a contribution to understanding all aspects of consumer behavior. All papers will be double-blind peer reviewed.

GUIDELINES

We call for original papers, written in English. Authors are free to subsequently publish their paper in any journal of their choice. Some papers can be invited for publication in a special issue of the Journal of Marketing Management if the authors indicate this.

Original papers might follow into two categories: competitive papers or flash talks papers (shorter presentation time). The flash talks are meant to be shorter presentations to showcase ongoing research. It is aimed at researchers who may be interested in discussing recently launched research projects. Every session will include presentations of three competitive papers (20 minutes) together with two flask talks (5 minutes).

SUBMISSION

Authors are invited to transmit their submissions via a conference management interface. The link to this interface is: https://www.openconf.org/LaLondeConference/openconf.php

To present at the conference, either with a competitive paper or a flash talk paper, we invite the submission of a full paper (maximum 4000 words). This includes everything: the cover / title page with abstract, references, appendix, tables and figures. Any paper exceeding the limit will not be included in the review process. Papers should be 1.5 spaced, Times New Roman 12-point font (except for the title, which should be Times New Roman 14-point font), 2.5cm margins at all sides (top, bottom, left, right). The first page should be reserved for the title, the name of the author(s) and the address (including e-mail). The second page should contain the title, a summary (150 words maximum), and 5 keywords. Figures and Tables should be integrated within the text as close as possible to where they are first mentioned. References should follow the Journal of Marketing Management guidelines (https://www.tandfonline.com/action/authorSubmission?show=instructions&journalCode= rjmm20)

We will use the SAME submission guidelines for both papers, but authors can indicate their submission preference (flash, competitive, indifferent) on the submission platform. The program committee will try to take this preference into account, though, depending on the balance of papers in the session this choice will not be binding.

Manuscripts must be submitted no later than January 2, 2023. Papers will be selected based on two blind reviews. Authors will be notified before March 10, 2023 regarding decisions on their manuscripts.

OUTCOMES

Authors of accepted papers can indicate whether they would like to submit their work for a special issue of the Journal of Marketing Management. The JMM-specific topic will be “Social Identity and Corporate Social Responsibility”. A non-limitative list of topics of interest for the special issue is:

  • Vintage consumption
  • Consumers relationships to second-hand brands
  • Sustainable luxury consumption
  • Alternative consumption

  • Collaborative consumption
  • Social and cultural variables influencing reactions to communication
  • Consumers from bottom of pyramid

The conference takes place in Porquerolles island in the Mediterranean sea.

The conference starts on Tuesday, May 30 at 6 p.m. and ends on Friday the 2nd of June in the early afternoon. Those wishing to arrive before/stay after or have further information should contact : lalondeconsumer.behavior@iae-aix.com

To get to the island, you need to take a boat. The best option for the boat is to take it from “La tour Fondue” for a 15 minutes boat trip.

We strongly recommend that you arrive at TOULON-HYERES airport or HYERES railway station. Toulon railway station is also an option, but less practical than HYERES in terms of access to he Island (it adds 20 km and 40 minutes)

Access from Nice or Marseille is possible by rail (but is fairly complicated) or by car via the toll motor-way. The journey takes a good 90 minutes from either city.

Please note that we will be checking carefully the email address and few days before the conference we will communicate to all registered participants phone contact numbers in case of emergency.

After your registration, you will receive a form to let us (1) know how you arrive (plane/train/Car?) and (2) at what time you arrive and leave. We will do our best to ease your process to reach the conference island and help for taxi and boats.
