Description
Symposium. Spaces and places provide immersive experiences to foster imagination, creativity, and innovation. The material and immaterial features of spaces act as catalysts for the generation of new ideas, innovations, and industries. This symposium seeks to foster the creation of a global community of scholars who share a common interest in exploring and potentially contributing to the understanding of how spaces and places can foster or inhibit imagination and innovation, in order to jointly develop a comprehensive theorization. Our goal is to unite researchers who investigate the role of place, space, or imagination/innovation from various theoretical angles, embracing perspectives at micro, meso, and macro levels. We encourage diverse theoretical, methodological, and epistemological viewpoints. The symposium will feature a distinguished group of scholars spanning different disciplines, all of whom have, either implicitly or explicitly, delved into a theoretical understanding on the nature of spaces and places, the importance and role of imagination and innovation in organization and management theory, or both.| Period | 11 Aug 2024 |
