CALL FOR PAPERS
2013 Aalto University-GAMMA Joint Symposium on
Strategic Marketing: Business Model Innovation and Dynamic Capabilities
Extended Submission Deadline: March 15, 2013
Date: April 26th, 2013; Venue: Aalto University School of Business, Helsinki, Finland
One of the key aims in strategic marketing research is to explain the link between marketing and strategy, and their impact on company performance through the creation and capture of customer value. The business model of a company defines how it creates and captures value. According to a 2009-study (Global CEO Study by IBM Institute for Business Value) 98% of companies are reportedly working to modify their existing business models, while seven out of ten companies report being actively engaged in business model innovation.
In the ever-changing and unpredictable world, business model innovation has been suggested as a way for companies to adapt their businesses to technological and structural developments as well as to find ways of delivering value to entirely new markets. Similarly, the dynamic capabilities approach has been put forth as a potential way of explaining how companies can maintain sustainable competitive advantage through restructuring their value creation and capture.
The 2013 Aalto University-GAMMA Joint Symposium “Strategic Marketing: Business Model Innovation and Dynamic Capabilities” invites submissions on strategic marketing related topics including, but not limited to:
· development of literature on business model innovation and the business model concept
· successful and/or unsuccessful business model innovations
· development and applications of dynamic capabilities approach
· dynamic capabilities approach to innovation
· performance implications of strategic marketing
· role of strategic marketing in organizations
· marketing models
· novel approaches to value creation and capture
· competitive dynamics and company performance
· creating sustainable competitive advantage
· other interesting topics relating to strategic marketing.
The preferred format for submissions is a 2-page extended abstract (max. 20-page full papers are also accepted). All accepted extended abstracts and full papers will be published in the proceedings of the symposium. Submission Guidelines and Reference style: Please refer to ‘GAMMA Conference and Symposium Guidelines’ and ‘Reference Style of GAMMA Journal and Proceedings’ (www.kams.org).
