For the best practice competition, the GOR 24 organisation team is looking for innovative case studies that present projects in which online market research methods have been successfully implemented in companies. New and innovative methods such as virtual reality, Internet-of-Things, measurement of biometric data and research with wearables are particularly welcome.

For the “Innovation in Practice” session, the programme organisers are looking forward to case studies and innovative developments from practice in the areas of ResearchTech, insight platforms, artificial intelligence, text analytics, automation or neuromarketing, as well as other methodological approaches related to online research.

The detailed calls for proposals can be found at: https://www.gor.de/about/call-for-papers.html

It will take place from Wednesday, 21 February to Friday, 23 February 2024 in cooperation with the RFH Cologne. Around 300 participants from universities, institutes and companies from Germany and abroad are expected to attend.

Dear Online Researcher,

for the General Online Research conference GOR 24 we are looking for workshop proposals.

GOR workshops take place on the day before the conference’s talks and presentations and are a great opportunity for conference attendees to learn about state of the art methods and applications in online research.

The GOR workshops aim at getting a hands-on experience with the latest tools (e.g., software or hardware), methods (e.g., data collection or analyses) and best practice (e.g., how to take advantage of recent developments).

The following topics are relevant for the GOR audience: online and mobile web surveys, data science, big data, smart data, political research, public opinion, political online communication, or online market research. Please note that the workshops are not the right place for plain sales presentations (although 
workshops on commercial solutions are possible).

This year’s workshops will take place on 21 February 2024 (in person at the Rheinische Fachhochschule Köln). Workshop duration should be 2.5 hours and language of instruction preferably English but German is possible for some workshops. As a token of appreciation, the conference fee for instructors will be waived.

Please submit your workshop outline by email to email@frederikfunke.net and include the following information:
– title
– instructor(s)
– target audience
– workshop description

– three course objectives

The deadline for workshop proposals is: 30 November 2023.

GOR is organized by the German Society for Online Research (DGOF, https://www.dgof.de/) since 1997. Each year more than 300 participants attend the conference to discuss current developments in online research and best practices for their work in industry and academia. With more than 100 presentations addressing various subtopics of online research, GOR provides intensive training and networking opportunities.

GOR 24 local partner and co-organizer: Rheinische Fachhochschule Köln, Prof. Dr. Christian Bosau

We look forward to receiving your workshop submission. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Best regards,

Dr. Frederik Funke
