WELCOME TO THE XXXVIII JORNADAS DE ECONOMIA INDUSTRIAL
The Department of Economics of Universidad Pablo de Olavide (UPO) is delighted to host the XXXVIII Jornadas de Economía Industrial, to be held in Seville, Spain, on the 5-6 September 2024. The Jornadas is an annual international meeting of researchers in Industrial Economics organized by the Industrial Economics Committee of the Spanish Economic Association (AEE). Since 1985, the meeting has provided an opportunity for researchers in Industrial Economics to discuss their ongoing work, share ideas and network.

The SE-30, the Ronda Super Norte, and the SE-40 are the bypass roads that facilitate movement around the city and its metropolitan area.

CONFERENCE VENUE
The conference will take place at Universidad Pablo de Olavide, which is located at km. 1 on the highway from Seville to Utrera. You can find the Campus in Google Maps here.
Parallel sessions, coffees and lunches, will take place in Edificio 45 “Alexander von Humboldt”, which is a 5-minute walk from the campus Metro station.
Plenary sessions will take place in the Paraninfo (Edificio 31), which is also a 5-minute walk from the Metro station in the Campus and a 10-minute walk from Edificio 45 “Alexander von Humboldt”.
You can easily locate the different buildings and the metro station in the campus map below.
TRANSPORT
You can access the Faculty of Economics and Business, the conference venue, using public transportation:
By Metro:
The most comfortable and fastest way to access the campus is undoubtedly by metro. The metro of Seville currently has one line. It goes from Aljarafe (Ciudad Expo) to Dos Hermanas (Olivar de Quintos), passing through Seville’s city centre. You can take the subway from different stations. Line 1 has one stop at Universidad Pablo de Olavide. Then, there is a 5-minute walk from Pablo de Olavide metro station to the conference location. You can buy a single ticket or a Bonometro. Both can be purchased from vending machines at all stations. The metro ticket system is based on fare zones. This means that the fare paid by the passenger is calculated according to the number of crossing fare zones made during a single journey (fare crossing). The single ticket cost is 1.35 € (no crossing fare), 1.60€ (1 crossing fare) and 1.80€ (2 crossing fares). The Bonometro is like a wallet card. The credit loaded on the card (a minimun of 10 euros is required) is consumed as trips are made. The cost of each trip with the Bonometro is 0.33€ (no crossing fare), 0.47€ (1 crossing fare) and 0.55€ (2 crossing fares). From the city center to Universidad Pablo de Olavide there is no crossing fare.
By bus:
Bus lines 38, M-130A and M-130B link the city to Universidad Pablo de Olavide. The bus frequency is much lower than that of the metro, especially in September before the start of classes. The bus company offers a smartphone platform: https://www.tussam.es/es/descarga-app. Bus tickets are available from the driver (from 1.40 euros).
By bicycle:
Seville has a bicycle rental service called Sevici. Simply get a card, and you can pick up and drop off a bike at any Sevici stop.
More information on Sevici website.
By car:
Reach Seville’s SE30 ring road and follow indications SE30 direction GRANADA; exit SE30 following indications to UTRERA; take the second exit from Carretera de Utrera towards Universidad Pablo de Olavide.
