Each year, AMA DocSIG, in collaboration with Dr. Mathew Joseph, recognizes an outstanding doctoral student whose scholarship reflects exceptional promise and the potential to make a lasting impact on the field of marketing.
This year, we received an outstanding and highly competitive pool of nominations. We are sincerely grateful to every applicant and proud of the remarkable community of emerging scholars within AMA DocSIG.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to our distinguished selection committee—Prof. Linda Alkire (Texas State University), Prof. Vikas Mittal (Temple University), and Prof. Vamsi Kanuri (University of Notre Dame)—for their thoughtful evaluation of each nominee’s research contributions, scholarly potential, and service to the academic community.
Congratulations to our 2026 recipient, Aritra Bhattacharya, Indian School of Business (ISB), Hyderabad, India!
Aritra, your dedication to research, outstanding accomplishments, and commitment to advancing marketing scholarship exemplify the spirit of this award.
We are excited to celebrate this well-deserved recognition and look forward to your continued contributions to the field.
The award will be presented during the AMA DocSIG 30th Anniversary Celebration.
