Ep. 91: JP Vergne on the Pirate Organization as the Innovators of Capitalism and Governance

Jean-Philippe (JP) Vergne is an Associate Professor of Strategy at Western University’s Ivey Business School, renowned for his research on organizations operating at the fringes of legality—particularly pirates. Along with Rodolphe Durand, he co-authored The Pirate Organization: Lessons from the Fringes of Capitalism, which explores how historical piracy and other unconventional ventures can shed light on modern forms of competition, regulation, and innovation. JP Vergne’s work extends to topics such as crypto governance, the historical development of organizations, and the evolution of capitalism.
