Geographers and other scientists have focused considerable attention on dramatic recent changes in the structure and location of economic activities. Because a major dimension of those changes has been the development of more complex international interconnections, researchers examining the dynamic economic geographies of specific regions increasingly have found themselves working more closely with colleagues in foreign nations. The International Geographical Union's Committee on Industrial Change has been an important organization helping geographers in different nations to relate research activities and to develop collaborative research projects. In August 1992, this committee will meet in Orlando, Florida, for a five-day meeting at which research papers will be presented, plans for future activities will be made, and high-technology industrial operations in central Florida will be studied. A conference proceedings will enable scientists not in attendance at the conference to benefit directly from its presentations and deliberations. This award provide partial support to assist in the planning and operations of that meeting. This conference will convene geographers and related scientists to share their current perspectives and insights about an important topic. In addition to bringing together scholars from across the globe who have had relatively little opportunity for focused, face-to-face discussions, the project also will provide opportunities for identification of new lines of basic research and for development of international collaborative research projects.

地理学家和其他科学家已将非常关注的重点放在经济活动结构和位置的巨大变化上。 由于这些变化的主要方面是发展更复杂的国际互连，因此研究特定地区的动态经济地理的研究人员越来越多地发现自己与外国国家的同事更加紧密地工作。 国际地理联盟工业变革委员会一直是一个重要的组织，帮助不同国家的地理学家联系研究活动并开发合作研究项目。 1992年8月，该委员会将在佛罗里达州的奥兰多举行五天的会议，将介绍研究论文，制定未来活动的计划，并研究佛罗里达州中部的高科技工业运营。 会议诉讼将使科学家不参加会议，以直接从其演讲和审议中受益。 该奖项提供了部分支持，以协助该会议的计划和运营。 这次会议将召集地理学家和相关科学家分享他们当前的观点和关于一个重要话题的见解。 除了将来自全球的学者们汇集在一起​​，这些学者几乎没有机会进行专注，面对面的讨论，该项目还将为识别基础研究的新线条和发展国际协作研究项目的发展提供机会。
