Conference - Corporate Strategy and Resource Redeployability
Salle de conférence, MISHA, Strasbourg
This conference will explore how multi-business firms might create value by redeploying resources across their multiple business units. Resource redeployment provides discretion or flexibility to withdraw resources from one business and reallocate them to another business. This mode of value creation is under-explored relative to the alternative of sharing resources simultaneously – also known as "synergy". It is believed that when firms can redeploy their resources in this manner, it provides greater potential to escape from declining prospects in a business, and is particularly valuable in turbulent environments.
About 20-30 university scholars from around the world will be in attendance presenting their work. The conference will facilitate a special issue in Advances in Strategic Management on the topic of Corporate Strategy and Resource Redeployability.
Timothy B. Folta, USIAS Fellow 2012 and Professor in Strategic Entrepreneurship at University of Connecticut, along with Constance Helfat, Professor of Strategy and Technology at Dartmouth College and Samina Karim, Professor of Entrepreneurship and Innovation at Northeastern University.
