In this webinar Professor Mattias Nordqvist and Professor Roberto Verganti will present ideas for a new research program that explores the intersection of art, innovation and family business. This includes, but is not limited to, the role of art in how entrepreneurs and owners make sense of a changing context, envision new paths and create value, which can assist us scholars in understanding key areas in the family business field, such as reframing, meaning making, ownership, entrepreneurship and succession.
