Research on competition and cooperation has traditionally evolved in two
independent streams. However, business reality has shown that competition
and cooperation often interplay and that their intersection (i.e., ‘
coopetition’) is prevalent in several markets and industries.
This PDW aims to discuss current research and challenges associated with
the interaction between competition and cooperation in management research,
and identify prospective directions for future research in this area.
Specifically, the purpose of this PDW is to create a highly interactive
environment where scholars in different fields, including strategic
management, international management, entrepreneurship, and technology
management on key topics related to the interplay of competition and
cooperation in innovative contexts and interfirm networks, implication of
competition for alliance and alliance governance, coopetition in alliance
portfolios, and value creation and value appropriation in competition and
cooperation.
The PDW is organized in two complementary sections. In the first section, a
panel of six distinguished strategy scholars, who are actively studying
this topic, will share insights with the audience, and open issues for
future research. In the second section, panelists will lead roundtable
discussions in which workshop participants will discuss their related
papers.
Scholars interested in discussing their research during the roundtables are
invited to submit a document that includes the following items: (1) a bio
sketch; (2) a 2-page extended abstract of the paper that you would like to
discuss in the PDW’s roundtable section; (3) a list of key questions or
issues that you are interested in as a basis for discussion, and (4) a
prioritized list of panelists that you would like to interact with and
receive feedback from in the course of the PDW. To the extent that items
2-3 are not included, it will be assumed that you are interested to join as
an observer if room is available.
