You are cordially invited to attend the 2024 AOM PDW
Platform Organizations and Societal Change
Friday, August 9, 2024, 10:15 – 12:15 CT (GMT-5/UTC-5)
Location: "State Room" in the Fairmont

More and more scholars have started to examine the role of platform organizations in societal change. Despite advances, we still know too little about (1) the processes, practices, and rhetoric through which platform organizations promote new knowledge paradigms, social structures, and culture; (2) how, when, and with what effects platform organizations alter established organizations and forms of organizing; and (3) the responses to platform organizations, and the dynamics these responses set in motion. Against that background, this PDW aims to inspire future research (Part 1) and to give feedback on working papers on this topic (Part 2). Part 1 can be attended by everyone. Part 2 requires the submission of a short paper.
Please apply for Part 2 until Monday, July 22, 2024 by filling out a short form and uploading a short paper (max. 5 pages without references and tables/figures) here: https://forms.gle/Utc8YmfzJy3ebTYe9
The PDW is linked to a special issue in Organization Studies (Deadline: Friday, February 28, 2025). The CfP is available here: https://journals.sagepub.com/pb-assets/cmscontent/oss/call%20for%20papers%20February%202025-1709721323.pdf
We are looking forward to inspiring discussions on the dynamics of platform organizations and helping you develop your best work!
