The Search and Matching Network (SaM) is a European network of academic economists working on search and matching models, including models of labour market search, consumer search, money search and housing search. It organizes an Annual Conference, aimed at bringing together in one place a large set of prominent researchers from Europe and elsewhere, while also including promising PhD students, to facilitate feedback and the exchange of ideas.

In 2016, this annual conference will take place in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, from May 11 to 13, and will feature invited keynote addresses by Christopher Flinn (NYU) and Ricardo Lagos (NYU).
