Abstract: The obstacles to the development of radical innovation in established firms have been widely studied. The ambidextrous organization is one of the answers proposed by the literature. In this organization, specific units are dedicated to the exploration, others to the exploitation and development of radical innovation. But the integration of these specific units into the rest of the firm has not been studied in detail. Our research is based on a longitudinal analysis of a new organisational entity created to enhance innovation in a multidivisional firm. We specify the activities deployed by this specific entity and the way it is integrated into the firm. We also show how this unit participates in divisional reconfiguration.
