Institutions & Entrepreneurship
2023 Conference

Call for papers for the 3rd Institutions & Entrepreneurship Conference and PhD Workshop
June 8鈥�10, 2023, Montreal, Quebec, Canada

听

The Desautels Faculty of Management of 香蕉视频 and the Johnson Graduate School of Management of听Cornell University are pleased to announce the upcoming conference on Institutions and Entrepreneurship, to听be held in Montreal, June 8 to 10, 2023.

Similar to the successful Institutions and Entrepreneurship Conferences of 2007 and 2008, the 2023 conference听will bring together scholars who take an institutional approach to the study of entrepreneurship and听entrepreneurial processes, broadly defined.

Institutions 鈥� the regulative, normative, and cognitive pillars of society 鈥� serve as both constraints and enablers听of entrepreneurial action. Institutions are tied to time and place, and while relatively stable are subject to change,听sometimes gradually and sometimes more abruptly. Entrepreneurship, or the construction of new organizations,听organizational forms, and markets both affects and is affected by institutions. We are interested in papers that听speak to this relationship: How do institutions affect entrepreneurship, and how does entrepreneurship affect听institutions? Our preference is for empirical papers.

Examples include but are not limited to:

• How do changes in regulatory, normative, or cognitive institutions create opportunities for entrepreneurship?
• In what ways can social movements be generative of entrepreneurship? Do social movement actors听engage in entrepreneurship to further their cause?
• How do entrepreneurs build institutional structures, such as regulatory and quasi-regulatory regimes,听that promote new organizations and markets?
• How do entrepreneurs draw on institutional logics to legitimate novel organizational forms? What听entrepreneurial opportunities exist in spheres characterized by conflicting logics?
• How do entrepreneurs deploy cultural elements in their activities? Can symbolic and ceremonial action听further their interests?

We are open to both qualitative and quantitative research designs and to a wide variety of contexts, including:

• Institutions and entrepreneurship in emerging markets.
• Institutions and entrepreneurship in the informal economy.
• Entrepreneurship amongst social groups that are institutionally marginalized.
• Institutions and entrepreneurship in times of economic and social disruption (political or economic crises, mass immigration, war, famine, natural disasters, etc.).
