The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania is proud to host the Seventh Triennial Invitational Choice Symposium.  The goal of the symposium is to foster an inter-disciplinary discussion of recent theoretical, empirical, and methodological advances in the study of choice and decision making, as well as to set an agenda for future work in the area. The symposium will be comprised of seventeen interdisciplinary workshops that will meet over the course of four days, each charged with producing a summary paper for review for publication in a special issue of Marketing Letters.


 The symposium will be held at two adjoining venues on the University of Pennsylvania campus:  Jon M. Huntsman Hall and the Inn at Penn.  Huntsman Hall, located at 38th and Walnut Streets, is a new facility that opened in 2002, and is named after the Wharton alumnus, corporate leader, and philanthropist.  The Inn at Penn, a short walk east of Huntsman on Walnut, will be housing most of the participants of the symposium. 


This is the first time that the symposium has been hosted in an urban setting, and an effort has been made to take advantage of that opportunity in planning arrangements. Philadelphia lies at the center of a large metropolitan area with 6.2 million permanent residents, and offers a wide range of cultural, recreational, and culinary opportunities. As a means of providing an introduction to the area, on the second full day of the symposium we have arranged a tour of Philadelphia’s historical areas that will culminate with a conference dinner at the National Constitution Center. 


We look forward to seeing you in June and helping make the Seventh Invitational Choice Symposium a great success!
