Their topics include value measuring and value appropriation in business networks, purchasing and supply management: on strategic roles and supplier interfaces, the geographical dimension in the interactive world: the importance of place, boundaries of business actors and networks: theoretical and methodological reflections, and researching the interactive business landscape.
