PhD project
Title: "Understanding the role of information and communication technology in the shaping of interorganisational knowledge exchange practice: The Context of European Living Labs"
As organisations are increasingly collaborating across organisational boundaries, ICTs are playing a more essential role in inter-organisational knowledge exchange (IOKE) practices. However, current research provides very fragmented perspectives of ICTs on the shaping of inter-organisational knowledge exchange, and the role of ICT in IOKE is not fully understood. Therefore, my research applies the context of European Living Labs to investigate the role of ICT in IOKE practices in order to fill this gap, with the use of Grounded Theory methodology. Both theoretical and practical contributions are expected from this research.
