Call For Papers
This special issue puts industry front and center. It calls for inbound and outbound theorizing on family business roles in industries and how industries facilitate family business development and innovation. We are explicitly looking for submissions that use industry as a variable of interest and (or) dependent variable in the research, with industry representing a major theoretical aspect of the arguments.
Our focus on outbound and inbound theories is not random but aims to decrease the lack of studies with both theories in family business. There remains a gap in understanding how other fields can draw from family business literature and benefit from this specific context to refine and advance mainstream theories and better understand industries home to both family and non-family businesses.
