Abstract: | The authors analyze whether firms prefer collocating with incumbent firms when choosing among markets to enter, highlighting the role of resource-seeking as a motivation for collocation. They find that hotels are attracted to markets with branded upscale hotels. Further they find that owners of upscale hotels avoid markets with hotels without similar resources. |
