A review of the literature on coopetition reveals that the majority of studies focus either on the nature of the phenomenon or on its outcomes. Less attention has been directed on drivers explaining why coopetitive agreements rise in an industry. By using an event history analysis, we developed a multi-level framework showing how the likelihood of entering a coopetitive agreement is influenced by firm-, inter-firm, and industry-level factors, including the number of previous firm’s agreement, the competitors’ cultural distance, the number of partners involved, the pace of coopetitive agreement, and the total number of coopetitive agreement. Implications for research and practice are drawn from results.

Abstract
A review of the literature on coopetition reveals that the majority of studies focus either on the nature of the phenomenon or on its outcomes. Less attention has been directed on drivers explaining why coopetitive agreements rise in an industry. By using an event history analysis, we developed a multi-level framework showing how the likelihood of entering a coopetitive agreement is influenced by firm-, inter-firm, and industry-level factors, including the number of previous firm’s agreement, the competitors’ cultural distance, the number of partners involved, the pace of coopetitive agreement, and the total number of coopetitive agreement. Implications for research and practice are drawn from results.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
