New mentoring scheme from the BHC's Emerging Scholars Committee


This year, the Business History Conference will be held virtually for the first time.

This new format presents us with both challenges and opportunities. The Emerging Scholars Committee usually runs networking events, such as a drinks reception and a breakfast. While we will miss seeing all of you in person this year, we hope to maintain some of these traditions in the new virtual format and to continue to provide a supportive space to network and meet other scholars.

We are launching a new mentoring scheme, which will provide participants at the virtual BHC with a valuable opportunity to gain advice and insight from more advanced scholars in the field on everything from completing a dissertation to finding research funding, navigating the academic job market to exploring possibilities for business historians beyond the academy.

If you would like to participate, please contact Victoria Barnes <barnes@rg.mpg.de>

We aim to begin the process of introducing mentors with mentees on the 17th February.

With best wishes,

Grace Ballor, Victoria Barnes, Jessica Burch, Valeria Giacomin, Sven Kube and Andrew McGee

The Emerging Scholar Committee



Por primera vez la BHC de 2021 se celebrará online. Este nuevo formato presenta tanto retos como oportunidades. El Comité de Investigadores Emergentes organiza eventos de networking en los congresos tales como una recepción y un desayuno. Si bien echaremos de menos poder reunirnos en persona este año, esperamos mantener algunas de nuestras tradiciones en el nuevo formato virtual. Confiamos en poder seguir proporcionando un espacio de apoyo a los investigadores y que estos puedan conocer a otros investigadores. 

La BHC virtual es una valiosa oportunidad para iniciar contactos y conocer a académicos más avanzados en el campo. Hemos creado un programa dedicado sobre todo a doctorandos y a investigadores en el mercado de trabajo. Si desea participar, póngase en contacto con Victoria Barnes <barnes@rg.mpg.de>

Nuestro objetivo es comenzar el proceso de introducción de mentores el 17 de febrero. 

Saludos cordiales, 

Grace Ballor, Victoria Barnes, Jessica Burch, Valeria Giacomin, Sven Kube y Andrew McThe Comité de Investigadores Emergentes

The Exchange is changing platforms! Please read to continue receiving our messages [working links]

  Dear subscribers to The Exchange: I am happy to announce that our blog is moving platforms. For almost a decade, the Business History Conference has used Blogger to publish and archive posts. However, in early 2021, the blogging site announced that their email serving service would be terminated. In addition, we noticed that many of our subscribers had stopped receiving the blog’s emails, and our subscription provides very limited reporting. In agreement, the Electronic Media Oversight Committee , web administrator Shane Hamilton, and web editor Paula de la Cruz-Fernández decided to move our web blog from Blogger to our website . We now write to you to request that if you wish to continue receiving announcements from the BHC, please subscribe here: https://thebhc.org/subscribe-exchange   Interested people will be asked to log into their BHC’s account or open one, free. If you have questions, please email The Business History Conference <web-admin [at] thebhc.org>...
