Summary: Although there has been significant development in the literature on coopetition, some dimensions remain understudied. This paper addresses three gaps by investigating the value creation and appropriation mechanisms in local-level coopetition among micro-firms in traditional industries. Through an in-depth case study of a small French wine appellation, the research identifies nine collective or individual mechanisms and contributes to the coopetition literature by enriching the understanding of value creation and appropriation, providing empirical insights, and offering managerial recommendations.

Summary: This research aims to identify typologies of companies willing to cooperate with universities to foster knowledge co-creation and ease knowledge transfer to students. Two types of companies were identified: Type 1, which supports interactions with universities and acknowledges the importance of alumni connections, and Type 2, which lacks interest in understanding or supporting the mission of universities and only engages in superficial interaction. This study highlights the relationship between universities and industry and its potential role in societal resilience.

Summary: This study explores how front-line employees' knowledge is transformed into organizational knowledge in hotels. By combining organizational knowledge creation theory with empirical evidence from three Chinese five-star hotels, the study proposes a framework comprising three types of knowledge activities: knowledge demonstration, knowledge justification, and knowledge re-contextualization. The study also explains how these activities facilitate the organizational knowledge creation process by examining changes in the scope of application and participant structure of knowledge-related interactions. This research contributes to the knowledge management field in hospitality by providing a new perspective on the knowledge activities of front-line employees and the accompanying knowledge transformation in hotels.

Summary: This research examines how firms use Interorganizational Systems (IOS) tools and project coordinators to overcome knowledge boundaries in different ideation tasks. The findings suggest that IOS tools help overcome syntax and semantic knowledge boundaries when the interdependence of idea implementation tasks is high, and project coordinators help overcome pragmatic knowledge boundaries when the interdependence of idea generation tasks is high. This research contributes to explaining the role of boundary objects and boundary spanners in enabling digital product innovation at the inter-firm level.

Summary: This article presents a study on value co-creation in the context of circular entrepreneurship. The authors propose an empirical model and test the relationships among co-creation scope, co-creation performance, and ecosystem output. Data collected through a survey of European circular firms is used for analysis. The findings show a significant positive relationship between co-creation scope and performance, but no significant relationship between dyadic co-creation performance and ecosystem output, except for the firm-supplier relationship. Value alignment does not moderate the relationship between co-creation scope and performance. The authors provide recommendations for aspiring circular entrepreneurs and suggest avenues for future research.

Summary: This study investigates the principles and factors influencing interaction for resource integration during service mega-disruptions in the tourism ecosystem. The study reveals that following interaction principles such as willingness to exchange, access to information, dialogue, transparency, coordination, adaptation, and informed risk assessment leads to value co-creation, while failure to follow these principles can result in value no-creation or value co-destruction. The most critical factors influencing interaction for resource integration during mega-disruptions are traveler's safety needs, initiation of travel cancellation, sympathy, proactivity, omnichannel communication, effectiveness of technology and employees, and the number of involved actors.
