    Dear colleagues,


    We would like to invite you all to a session on Ecosystems.  Please find below the details of the session. 





    Ecosystems Research: Taking Stock and Promising Directions


    Business ecosystems underlie the core value proposition in many industries. These ecosystems can be comprised of multiple firms whose activities or technologies need to be coordinated for the value proposition to materialize. Over the past two decades, a growing body of research has examined issues of coordination and competition within business ecosystems. The panel will discuss the progress of this literature and how it draws on and relates to other important areas such as alliances, standards, platforms and networks. The panel will also discuss some promising avenues of future research on ecosystems as well as some of the important theoretical and empirical challenges faced by scholars interested in studying ecosystems.
