Scholars have traditionally investigated separately several questions in recombinant strategy – how a firm bundles resources in internal organization, in strategic alliances, in acquisitions, and in other vehicles for corporate development. But research and practice show that several decisions cut across these questions. The panel will offer a unifying perspective on how firms can create and capture value by combining internal and external assets, through various mechanisms. We will focus on three questions: (1) how joint value is created in combinations; (2) how combinations are governed; and (3) how value is distributed among parties. The panel consists of a mix of scholars and executives and will forge a bridge from the best thinking of researchers to the best practices that managers seek. Its will develop insights from strategy research that are relevant for practice.
