Abstract

The process by which identity aspirations are instantiated in institutionally complex environments remains largely unknown. The present study focuses on the role of legitimacy in this process through a comparative case study of three French Science Centers who share a common aspiration to become innovation intermediaries within their geographic regions. Our findings suggest that the construction of a new organizational identities demands that organizations engage in complex legitimation activities towards their stakeholders and thus contribute to understanding how organizations cope with institutional complexity.
