    Dear AOM Members,

    We call your attention to our PDW session, "Global Restructuring: Innovation and
    Organization in a Borderless World", on Saturday, Aug 13 2011 10:15AM - 12:15PM

    We bringtogether scholars from diverse disciplines and perspectives to focus on
    the following critical inter-linked areas: (1) innovation trajectories and
    alternative scenarios arising from West - East interactions; (2) organizing
    principles in the context of global innovation – West and East; (3)
    institutional and other mechanisms for integrating industrialized and developing
    economies (West and East).

    The PDW panelists’ presentations will incorporate Q&A and dialogue with
    participants. Panelists include David Audretschwho has pioneered research on
    entrepreneurship and written numerous articles in leading journals. His latest
