Since the year 2000, IFN has organized an annual conference in Stockholm, the IFN Stockholm Conference, in research areas that are important to the institute. The hosting rotates between IFN's research programs. In December 2025, the conference was organized within the research program The Economics of Entrepreneurship, with Lars Persson as the program director and jointly with Pehr-Johan Norbäck.

Lars Oxelheim participated when the European International Business Academy held its 51st annual conference from December 11 to 13. This year's conference took place in Athens with over 700 participants. Lars Oxelheim contributed two research papers and had the pleasure of seeing one of them – co-authored with colleagues from England and Norway – awarded the prize for the best paper in the field of international finance and corporate governance.
