Conference
Mapping Entrepreneurial Group Trajectories
Research Conference, 25-27 September 2019, Technische Universität Berlin, organized by the Research Group “Entrepreneurial Group Dynamics” and the DFG-Research Network “Venturing Together!”
It was the goal of this research conference to create a platform for researchers interested in mapping entrepreneurial group trajectories over time and space. The tentative program featured keynote speeches by Martin Ruef and Ugo Corte, who reflected upon entrepreneurial groups as social orders and their collaborative trajectories. Invited and commented presentations addressed the dynamics in the formation of groups, key transitional events such as member entry / exit or further business founding and closing (habitual entrepreneurship), and contextual influences on the trajectories of entrepreneurial groups.
