Discussion: View Thread

Dear Colleagues,

Less than three weeks left to submit to our Industry and Innovation Special Issue on "Repurposing for Innovation: Knowledge Reuse and Adaption in Times of Uncertainty and Transformation."

As guest editors Isabel Bodas Freitas, Marvin Hanisch, Yansong Hu, Dorota Piaskowska, and I invite quantitative and qualitative submissions studying this topic (and topics related to repurposing such as exaptation) in a variety of contexts and from diverse theoretical perspectives (including organizational-, team-, individual-, and product-level analyses). Suggested angles include: 
💡 Repurposing and Serendipity
💡 Repurposing with Artificial Intelligence (AI)
💡 Repurposing in High Uncertainty Contexts
💡 Repurposing for Sustainability

For more suggestions of specific research questions and guidelines, please consult the full call for papers available at: Repurposing for Innovation: Knowledge Reuse and Adaption in Times of Uncertainty and Transformation

Submissions to the Special Issue are due by September 30, 2025.

Kind regards,

Bastian Rake and the Special Issue Team
