Understanding how firms and other Stakeholders cooperate and exploit networked resources is the core agenda of this research symposium.

Increasingly, owning resources appears to be kess relevant to contemporary organisations than having access to resourceful networks. Businesses need to take into account the interplay between local activities in regional clusters and those embedded in global value chains in turbulent times. Their various value creation activities may follow different organisational principles – exchange modes vary between market, hierarchy and cooperative governance forms. The notion of cultivating and accessing resourceful networks Uhus is significant. Business activities extend beyond the focal firm and into a dynamic relational space wich connects stakeholders, other firms and industry participants in changing ecosystems.

The organisers of the research symposium have the aim to bring together researchers from diverse backgrounds to share knowledge and insights into the topic of networks in changing Business environments. Building on this interdisciplinary exchange we seek to establish a broad kooperative research agenda about the contemporary role of businesses in an increasingly networked world.
