Outline of Research at the Start |
Small and medium-sized enterprises navigate and operate in a web of different and sometimes contradictory governance modes across corporate, political and social domains. Drawing on organization theory, and non-market strategy literature, this project proposes the concept of cultural imprinting, including a socio-spatial view of community imprinting and a political-ideological view of norm imprinting. Adopting a mixed research design, this project empirically demonstrates how SMEs in China manage the interdependence between self-governance, market-based standards, and multi-stakeholder rules.

Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Centered around how institutional environments and firms interact and shape each other, this project has made substantial progress in the last year. 3 research papers are now in the process of revisions with three FT50 journals. 2 research papers have been submitted to a highly ranked journal in the area of business and society for consideration. The funding has supported the invitation of 5 high profile International researchers to give seminar talks. It also helped with academic visits to and collaboration with co-authors.

Current Status of Research Progress |
Current Status of Research Progress
1: Research has progressed more than it was originally planned.
Reason
Given the publication records and the current pipeline, this project is progressing very well. The relaxation of the border control will further facilitate additional data collection, and academic collaboration.
|
Strategy for Future Research Activity |
In this academic year, the focus is the revision of academic papers at highly ranked journals and further submissions (and attending academic conferences). In addition, an international academic workshop on theory development in management studies will be organized in June. To expand this research project, data collection of small and medium sizes companies in creative industries will be conducted in Japan.
