OVERVIEW
The scenic region of Upper Austria with its clusters in the chemical, metal and creative industry is the perfect spot to experience and discuss the theme "Tapping into pockets of knowledge". The question how to acquire locally embedded knowledge and then leverage corporate exploration and exploitation has increasingly attracted scholarly attention over the last years. The Danube extension is framed around the logical chain from knowledge acquisition, to the challenge of establishing ambidextrous organizations and corporate change. It seeks to integrate perspectives on these topics from corporate strategy, international management, organizational theory, and technology management.
We are able to accept up to 50 participants for this workshop and their acceptance will be based on a first come, first serve basis.
