Hi thanks for your interest in this conference. I only found this site today.
This year’s online conference had a low fee of £ 100, however, it is sold out.
I am Chair of the Strategy Research Special Interest group and for this reason, would be happy to have a chat if you are interested.
How much is the Conference fee?

I am trying to track down what used to be an annual conference on Multi-organizational Partnerships, Alliances and Networks (MOPAN). The last mentions I can find are 2012 and 2013 and then the default appears to be to a BAM conference track. Has this conference been subsumed into your annual conference or is it still operating independently?
Thanks!
