Central to NFF’s mission is to stimulate Nordic management research and idea exchange

Central to NFF’s mission is to stimulate Nordic management research and idea exchange. Key means are the biannual NFF conference that circulates among the Nordic countries, and the NFF Doctoral Initiative that enables doctoral students and faculty to come together in pan-Nordic doctoral courses and workshops. NFF offers financial support to its member institutions that wish to offer pan-Nordic  PhD Courses. NFF also supports young researchers’ visits to other Nordic countries through the Postdoc Mobility Grants. For more information on these inititatives, you are welcome to surf our pages or contact the NFF secretary.
