讲座内容简介：
Creating and capturing new value is a central concern for entrepreneurship and strategy. Entrepreneurs must discover or create value, and then organize and govern its composition. In both the scholarly and practitioner literature, search strategies are rarely considered jointly; the implicit assumption seems to be that there is one strategy to rule them all. Curiously, entrepreneurship tends to make a similar implicit assumption about the entrepreneurial firm: theories of the firm have tended to separate choices associated with value creation from choices about governance. While significant attention has been paid in strategy and entrepreneurship to orchestrating resources, the question of how to govern their orchestration is left in the shadows. This talk ties these issues together as novel theory in entrepreneurship, exploring value creation and capture through the lens of comparative governance. We will discuss what it means to govern the search for value, the rationale and necessity of the entrepreneurial firm as a mode to capture value, and whether and where machine intelligence can substitute for human intelligence in the search for value and the generation of novel strategies.
