AOM Chicago 2024 PDW - The AI Disruption of Entrepreneurship: A Setback or Breakthrough for Innovation? Research Incubator

Organizer: Frédéric Ooms, HEC Liège – Management School of the U. of Liège
Organizer: Moren Levesque, York U.
Organizer: Boris Nikolaev, Colorado State U.
Organizer: Martin Obschonka, U. of Amsterdam

This PDW aims to spark a conversation and build a community that will serve as a catalyst for critical and much needed dialogue on the implications of AI for the fields of entrepreneurship and innovation. The workshop will take a developmental approach to identify the most pressing research questions, plan concrete study designs, and discuss how the research community and research process at large can be promoted in this field. To these ends, the workshop is designed to connect scholars interested in the intersection of AI and entrepreneurship, which we view as an important foundational step in creating a vibrant community of scholars interested in this topic. We seek to foster a community that is invested in understanding what AI means for entrepreneurship practice and research, collectively shaping the direction of future research, and to also offer a creative space for brainstorming ideas through a research incubator. This format is chosen to promote active collaboration and networking among participants, laying the groundwork for a shared vision on the future of AI in entrepreneurship research, and forming new networks and communities.
