4th gathering of the International Academy of Research in Indigenous Management and Organizational Studies (IARIMOS)

In 2026, Ivey Business School partners with IARIMOS for the Ivey-IARIMOS Workshop, hosted by Ivey Business School's Centre for Building Sustainable Value and Network for Business Sustainability. The two-and-a-half-day event, held at the Ivey Spencer Leadership Centre from October 30 to November 1, 2026, invites learning on and from the land through keynote presentations, two-eyed seeing cases, gatherings, panels and workshops that bring together leading Indigenous researchers and emerging scholars.

Ivey Publishing is excited to support the inaugural Ivey–IARIMOS Fellowship, to work alongside emerging scholars and Indigenous community partners to develop new teaching cases for business education.

In partnership with the International Academy of Research in Indigenous Management and Organizational Studies (IARIMOS), we see this as an important opportunity to address gaps in existing learning materials and expand the range of Indigenous perspectives represented in business classrooms.

Each fellow will receive $1,500 in support to help with travel and other costs associated with participation and case development. Fellows will also participate in an Ivey case teaching and writing workshop, with Ivey faculty case authors sharing their experience and perspectives, and, receive one-on-one support from Ivey faculty authors and Ivey Publishing editorial staff throughout the case-development process. 

Cases developed through the fellowship will be considered for publication by Ivey Publishing. Completed cases will need to be submitted to Ivey Publishing by April 30, 2027, allowing the editorial review and development process to begin.

• Runs in person from 7 am ET on October 30 to 1 pm ET on November 2, 2026, inclusive of all activities.
• Registration is free and limited to 24 participants, in addition to the six Indigenous fellows.
• Both Indigenous and non-Indigenous contributors, protagonists or co-authors of cases may register and receive the full, free certification, provided they attend the event in person.
• Full certification requires attending all three case writing workshops, which are offered in person only.
• Virtual livestreams of the case teaching showcase sessions are available to any registered participant.
• All in-person participants receive meals during the workshop and free parking at the Ivey Spencer Leadership Centre.
• Accommodation is arranged and paid for by participants.

We look forward to hearing the stories and perspectives fellows bring forward and working together to develop cases that are meaningful, engaging and valuable for students and educators.

We are excited to be part of this first cohort and to contribute to an emerging collection of Indigenous-led cases that can enrich business education.
