    Description: 
    This professional development workshop aims to foster research that combines interorganizational alliances and firm acquisitions. While there are vast bodies of literature on each of these two topics, there is rather limited research that combines and integrates insights from both streams of research. But firms' alliance and acquisition strategies are strongly intertwined as alternative modes of corporate development. Furthermore, despite differences in the degree of organizational interdependence between partners, the two corporate development modes share several empirical and theoretical linkages. Therefore, we ask the questions of how alliances affect various aspects of a firm's acquisition strategy and how acquisitions influence a firm's alliance behavior. 
    The workshop will open with five presentations on various aspects of the interaction between alliances and acquisitions by the following scholars. This part is open to everyone and no registration is necessary. The second part of the workshop consists of roundtable discussions to foster research on this topic. Discussion groups will be created based upon common research interests and will be led by the presenters and organizers. To participate in the group discussions, please register at http://bit.ly/2pnqLQE 
     
    We look forward to seeing you in Atlanta!
