Some news about the @vmdseminar.bsky.social team:
- @olivierbos.bsky.social is stepping down. Huge thanks Olivier for your dedication and all the great work we accomplished together!
- Welcome Michael Greinecker (@yesthatsme.bsky.social) to the team! Excited to have you on board Michi! #EconSky 📉📈
It’s time for me to step back from organizing the @vmdseminar.bsky.social. It has been a wonderful journey.
Many thanks to Michael Greinecker (@yesthatsme.bsky.social) for taking over my role. It’s good to see the team renew over time.
My thoughts are with Nora Szech, who was with us at the start.
A wonderful opportunity to work on market design and environmental economics with Louis-Gaëtan Giraudet and Laurent Lamy, both great experts on the topic.
Great opportunity for market designers. Join University of Mannheim and #ZEW as a Professor of Market Design if you fit the profile: outstanding research, especially on auction or matching markets, experience in policy advice and leadership of teams

Here's an interesting looking job search. (I remember a time when there weren't searches for market designers...)
