SIG: FAMILY BUSINESS RESEARCHDuring the past decade, family business studies have advanced significantly but research still largely focuses on a limited number of topics and theory development requires ongoing attention. The European Academy of Management with an ad-hoc “Special Interest Group on Family Business Research” aims to be the ideal opportunity to assess the conceptual development, empirical research, and future direction of the family business field. We envision this SIG about “Family Business Research” composed of four main tracks that will attract scholar contributions that provide new insights of topics that have received significant attention in the past, such as succession, professionalization, conflict, performance dimensions, family processes, and governance, as well as we especially encourage scholars to undertake innovative papers and discussions of topics that have not received much attention but are important in the field, such as family governance systems, relational governance, socioemotional wealth, the role of trust, the role of enterprising families, transgenerational entrepreneurship, innovation, internationalization, etc. In Istanbul (EURAM 2013) we offer the following tracks: 23) Family Business Research – General Track 24) Entrepreneurship in Family Firms: an evolutionary and longitudinal perspective – Track (Cross-SIG Track with ENTREPRENEURSHIP SIG) 25) Family Business Governance – Standing Track (Cross-SIG Track with COGO SIG) 26) Innovative Family Firms – Track Other activities at EURAM 2013 will include: • A pre-conference session focusing on “Socioemotional wealth as an emerging paradigm in Family Business Research” (keynote to be defined) The SIG Team Chair: Cristina Cruz (cristina.cruz@ie.edu) For further details, please visit (website).
