Location: San Antonio Convention Center, Room 212B

This PDW focuses on inter-firm contracting research, which has been growing rapidly with several recent publications in top journals. The primary goal of the workshop is to provide a forum for scholars who are currently studying inter-firm contracts to engage in a dialogue about current and future research opportunities. This PDW also provides an opportunity for scholars who are not currently conducting research on inter-firm contracts to obtain an overview of the field and to join in the discussion.
The PDW will consist of two parts. The first part, which will be open to all academy members, will feature presentations by scholars who have published their research on inter-firm contracting in the top strategy and management journals. The second part will be a paper development workshop. Session participants who have submitted a paper or paper outline will form small groups to discuss their own research in a roundtable setting and receive feedback from the presenters.
There are still a number of slots open for conference attendees who would like to take part in the paper development workshop portion of this PDW. If you are interested, we would like to ask you to register for the workshop so that we can obtain an accurate head count. However, if you are submitting a paper, please send it directly to Jason Pattit (
jmpattit@stthomas.edu) by Tuesday (8/9).
We look forward to seeing you in San Antonio for an engaging session!
Jason Pattit and Valérie Duplat
