    Please join us in Panel Symposium "Reconceptualizing Cooperative Strategy in the Era of Social Movements-A Firm Perspective" (OMT, STR, SIM)

    🗓 Monday, Jul 28, 12:00PM - 1:30PM

    📍    Location: Bella Center, Hall C- C3-m4

    In the era of social movements, firms have notably shifted from confrontation with activist groups towards cooperating with such groups. This type of cooperation allows firms to adapt to societal demands, enhancing their survivability while enrolling them to help address societal problems. This panel symposium identifies three research streams salient to the theorization of firm-social movement cooperation-interorganizational relationships (IORs), nonmarket strategy and social movement research-and aims to foster an intersectional conversation amongst them.

    The symposium will explore various potentials of theory development and surface new research avenues to advance all three research traditions.
