We kindly invite you to submit your papers to the minitrack #4: Strategic and Competitive Behavior on Digital Platforms Track: Strategic and Competitive Uses of IT
************************
Digital platforms provide a stage for individuals to engage with each other and exchange a variety of goods and services. Intra-platform competition may arise, as there is a rivalry for limited resources on these platforms. For instance, individuals on social media compete for attention, entrepreneurs on crowdfunding platforms for investments, and sellers on online marketplaces for customers. To attract those limited resources individuals may engage in strategic behavior. Complementor strategies could include the strategic positioning of offerings (e.g., pricing strategies) or opportunistic behaviors towards competitors. Platform providers may use platform governance mechanisms to allow for increasing levels of competition with the objective of expanding the size and variety of its offered goods and services.
This mini-track is open to any kind of submissions both conceptual and empirical papers that employ a variety of quantitative and qualitative methodologies.
Possible topics include but are not limited to: - Strategic and competitive behaviors of individuals for example on… * …sharing economy platforms * …crowdfunding platforms * …gaming platforms * …social media - Inter-individualistic differences in strategic behavior of individuals on platforms - Factors such as platform governance that may influence intra-platform competition and individualistic strategic behavior - Opportunistic behaviors used to try to “game” the system - Adjustment of behaviors after disruptive events on platforms
