The Special Issue of the Journal on Intellectual Capital  is entitled :

“Ten Years After: The Past, the Present & The Future of
Scholarly Investigation on Intangibles and Intellectual Capital”

The Journal of Intellectual Capital (JIC) organizes a Special Issue to be published in 2015 drawing on the papers and the key-note speeches presented at the 10th EIASM Workshop on “Intangibles, Intellectual Capital and Extra-Financial Information” that is going to be held on September 18-19, 2014, at the Department of Economics and Management of the University of Ferrara (Italy).

A JIC Special Issue was realized in 2006 (Vol. 7, No. 4) out of the papers of the 1st edition of the EIASM Workshop in question, held in 2005. Ten years after is time to examine how far our understanding of intangibles and IC has come over the past decade and which are the most promising research avenues for the future of these studies.

The Guest-Editor of this Special Issue is Professor Stefano Zambon (University of Ferrara).

Ferrara is conveniently located. It is 40 kilometers North of Bologna and 70 kilometers south of Padua. It is easily reachable by train, by air and by car.

BY TRAIN

Ferrara is on the direct railway line connecting Rome to Florence, Bologna, Padua and Venice. From Milan one has to change in Bologna. By train Ferrara is distant 25 minutes from Bologna, 50 minutes from Padua, 1 hour and 20 minutes from Venice, 1 hour and a half from Florence, 3 hours and 10 minutes from Rome, and 2 hours and a half from Milan.

BY AIR

The closest airport is that of Bologna (40 km in a motorway). From there one can get the shuttle to the railway station, or to take a cab straight to Ferrara. In the latter case we advise you to inform in advance the travel agency that can provide you with a cab waiting for you at the airport at a better price (around 70 euros) than those standing there.
Other good options are the airports of Venice (about 100 km), Verona, and Florence.

For information about the shuttle bus from Bologna airport to Ferrara see : 
www.ferraraterraeacqua.it/it/ferraratransfer

BY CAR

Ferrara is conveniently located on the motorway A14 connecting Bologna to Padua and Venice. There are two exits (Ferrara Nord and Ferrara Sud). From Brennero and Verona the easiest is to take the motorway to Bologna (the so-called Brennero-Modena motorway), and once there get to the A14 motorway heading north.
