Economic activities in the Greater Pearl River Delta (GPRD) are embedded into fragmented global value chains and shaped by the spatial division of labour between Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland. Business success in such competitive environments depends on competences and resources of firms to capitalise on both informal and formal institutions. Against this background, our project is based on the assumption that a firm can achieve a sustained competitive advantage by agile firm organisation - an organisational innovation to seize opportunities and to cope with uncertain threats in volatile markets proactively. Our multidisciplinary consortium covers 1) the informality continuum of governance and institutions facilitating agile firm organisation in the GPRD, 2) the regional economic rationale of agile firm organisations, and 3) social dynamics that stabilise and smoothen regional agility. Mega-urban regions offer the best conditions for agile firm organisation due to thick input markets and distinct global-local interfaces. Agile firms are boosting megaurban economies and have wider impacts on its social, political, and ecological development. Hence, our topic is an eminent emerging field to explain the informal dynamics of global change in mega-urban regions.

大珠江三角洲的经济活动嵌入到分散的全球价值链中，并受香港与中国大陆之间的空间分工影响。在这种竞争环境中，企业的成功取决于企业利用非正式和正式机构的能力和资源。在此背景下，我们的项目是基于这样的假设，即一个公司可以实现一个持续的竞争优势，敏捷的公司组织-组织创新，抓住机遇，积极科普不确定的威胁，在动荡的市场。我们的多学科联盟涵盖1）促进GPRD敏捷企业组织的治理和机构的非正式连续性，2）敏捷企业组织的区域经济基础，以及3）稳定和平滑区域敏捷性的社会动态。由于密集的输入市场和独特的全球-本地界面，特大城市地区为敏捷的公司组织提供了最佳条件。敏捷公司正在推动特大城市经济的发展，并对其社会、政治和生态发展产生更广泛的影响。因此，我们的主题是一个杰出的新兴领域，以解释全球变化的非正式动态在特大城市地区。
