Workshops 

IPSERA wants to promote community building and competence development within the network also between the Annual IPSERA Conferences. Workshops and other events organized by IPSERA members help to achieve that goal.

These workshops can last anything between one afternoon and two days, may be targeted at an audience of practitioners or academics or both, and may be international or not. IPSERA membership is not always required to be able to participate, but does give you rebates on possible registration fees. Workshops with IPSERA funding will typically be organized by an IPSERA RICC or SIG, but workshops organized by other active IPSERA members can also apply for funding.

Ipsera provides bursaries for PhD students. These bursaries are available in the menu under 'Bursaries'.

Workshop Organising Pack and Funding

IPSERA provides small grants to organise workshops and small events. The workshop or event must be open to members and has to be advertised to the network. For those members who would like to organize an event, please e-mail the network manager in the Executive Committee at network@ipsera.com.

Workshops may receive a funding of up to EUR 750.

     Competing for Supplier Resources: Reverse marketing, customer attractiveness, supplier satisfaction and preferred customer treatment

    The event will be held online.

    Date: November 27th, 2026

    Time: 12:30 (UTC+1)

    Duration: 1 hour


    The webinar will introduce the JPSM Special Issue, “Competing for Supplier Resources: Reverse marketing, customer attractiveness, supplier satisfaction and preferred customer treatment.”

    During the session, two invited speakers, Niels J. Pulles (University of Twente) and Chris Ellegaard (Aarhus University), will share their perspectives, experiences and insights on customer attractiveness, supplier satisfaction and preferred customer treatment, highlighting opportunities and challenges for research on competing for supplier resources.

    The webinar is organised by Holger Schiele, Zsófia Tóth, Kari Tanskanen and Claudia Rebolledo. The Special Issue Guest Editors will moderate the discussion and conclude the session by sharing their reflections and practical advice for researchers interested in contributing to this important topic.

    Whether you are conducting research on customer attractiveness and preferred customer treatment, interested in how buying organisations compete for scarce supplier resources, or exploring opportunities to contribute to the Special Issue, this webinar offers a valuable opportunity to exchange ideas and engage with the international PSM research community.

    We warmly encourage all IPSERA members, researchers and scholars to join us for this insightful discussion.
