Presenters: Nilanjana Dutt (Bocconi University), Aldona Kapacinskaite (London Business School), Jackson Nickerson (Washington University), Dimo Ringov (ESADE Business School)
Discussants: Sarah Kaplan (University of Toronto) and Dennis Yao (Harvard Business School)
Organizer: Aldona Kapacinskaite
Chair: Keith Pennington
Whether and how firms respond and adapt to external pressures has important implications for organizational performance and evolution. Prior research has established that firms may be impelled to reposition, innovate, or specialize, all of which have important repercussions for resource allocation and recombination. Further research is needed in order to advance our understanding of the specific drivers of industrial renewal taking place across various settings. Papers in this symposium address questions regarding external pressures and resource recombination, offering new theoretical frameworks and drawing on empirical settings including transport, energy, and pharmaceutical industries.
I hope to see you there!
