Conference Information
The International Conference on Establishment Statistics promotes discussion of a broad range of issues related to the statistics of businesses, farms, and institutions. ICES features invited and contributed papers and demonstrations from around the globe that highlight new, improved, and upcoming establishment statistics methodologies and technologies using census data, administrative data, and sample survey data.
Participants come from academia, government statistical agencies, private businesses, and statistical associations and have an interest in international best practices for conceptualization, design, data collection, analysis, and dissemination.
The conference proceedings provide a historical repository of valuable information related to the development and use of establishment statistics.
ICES has a truly international character. The conference may take place anywhere in the world, although its official language is English. Participation is open to all with an interest in establishment statistics. Contributed papers and demonstrations are chosen solely on merit.
For the fifth conference in the ICES series, Statistics Sweden produced a special issue of the Journal of Official Statistics (Volume 34, Issue 2). For the sixth conference, Wiley published an edited volume featuring various papers presented during the conference: Advances in Business Statistics, Methods, and Data Collection. There are two special issue journals planned for ICES VII: Survey Methodology and the Statistical Journal of the IAOS.
The ICES series is produced by the American Statistical Association; Office for National Statistics; and an organizing committee, program committee, and continuation committee. Information about each ICES conference and conference proceedings can be found on the ASA website.
