Investment processes realized by energy companies are usually very complex and require the involvement of various partners and organizations. Within this particular context, the relations between these partners seem to be worth analyzing focusing on simultaneous cooperation and competition which is called coopetition. The authors identify and analyze coopetitive relations from the viewpoint of the first polish nuclear power plant project.
This paper adopts the approach of systematic review and provides a synthesis of the literature on coopetition in management and strategy. Our review focuses first on the phenomenon features, and offers a consensus-based definition. Next, we address the theoretical frameworks used by researchers and examine the linkage with related fields in order to outline the distinctive lines of coopetition versus alliances. Then we review the empirical foci adopted in published work to identify both preferred and underexplored areas of extant academic attention. We draw a research agenda oriented at further exploration of coopetition morphology, elucidating the stability issue and examining coopetition along the antecedents-process-outcomes trail.(original abstract)
