EMCR International Research Seminar Series
About
Innovation, competitive dynamics, and strategic management in hospitality and tourismThis seminar uses the paper “LLM-based Innovation Dynamics Analyzer” as a starting point to reflect on strategic management research in hospitality and tourism. The presentation will draw on how the study maps innovation moves and action–reaction chains among US restaurant corporations using news reports and stock-market responses, highlighting nuanced first-mover and value-leader effects. The seminar will continue by broadening the discussion to what these findings mean for understanding competitive advantage, imitation and timing in service industries more generally, closing by outlining a research agenda that connects mainstream strategy theories with tourism and hospitality phenomena and their distinctive empirical settings.
