The case of Mobile CommerceMahnke, Volker; Overby, Mikkel Lucas (København, 2004)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Many companies in the cross section of telecommunication and mobile technology engage in R&D collaborations to manage uncertainty, create synergies and learn. While the challenges of managing individual collaborations are well documented, little is known on how to systematically manage several R&D collaborations simultaneously. We use modern portfolio theory as an analogy to show how companies active in mobile telecommunication manage risks and create synergies by simultaneously engaging in several inter-firm collaborations.

Abstract: Internalisation theory informs us about why and when multinational enterprises (MNEs) internalise foreign operations, but has less to say about how the internalisation should be prepared and exercised when foreign market operations initially are carried out by local, outside agents. Drawing on insights from managerially-oriented literature, this paper explores the role of management in situations where the market transaction costs of using outside agents are negligible at market entry, but grow over time. A key question pertaining to this situation is: what management instruments may ensure persistent concurrence between changing pressure for internalisation in a foreign market and the effectuated internalisation of an MNE in that market? Management instruments and strategies that potentially support ‘staged internalisation’ include appropriation of the local outside agent’s financial assets (including equity) as well as non-financial assets in relation to user rights, customer relations, and value added activities.

Abstract: Acquisitions are standard components of the growth strategies of many organizations. Frequently, acquisitions raise important questions concerning how and to what extent the acquisition’s information technology (IT) needs to be integrated into the IT of the acquirer. We investigate how the initial conditions of business and IT alignment in the acquirer and the acquisition affect the complexity of the post-acquisition IT integration process, in acquisitions of business units by multi-business organizations. Adopting an IT alignment model for multi-business organizations, we explain the complexity of IT integration paths in two acquisitions made by the industry group Trelleborg AB. We identify four initial business and IT strategic alignment conditions where the IT integration process is a simple one-step process exploiting existing business and IT capabilities. Low compliance with these conditions leads to increased complexity because additional business and/or IT capabilities have to be developed to leverage the full potential of the acquisition.

A Focus Group StudyHellström, Tomas; Husted, Kenneth (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper argues that knowledge mapping may provide a fruitful avenue for intellectual capital management in academic environments such as university departments. However, while some research has been conducted on knowledge mapping and intellectual capital management in the public sector, the university has so far not been directly considered for this type of management. The paper initially reviews the functions and techniques of knowledge mapping and assesses these in the light of academic demands. Secondly, the result of a focus group study is presented, where academic leaders were asked to reflect of the uses of knowledge mapping at their departments and institutes. Finally a number of suggestions are made as to the rationale and conduct of knowledge mapping in academe.

Abstract: Denne undersøgelse er igangsat med henblik på at få et reelt billede af hvordan HD studerende på landsplan ser ud. I meget korte træk kan nævnes fra undersøgelsen, med 610 respondenter; Besvarelserne om hvilken organisation/virksomhed de studerende kommer fra, rejser spørgsmål om HD er tilpasset markedet i dag, om vi reelt er dækkende (off.ansatte). Med udgangspunkt i uddannelsens længde, er længden hensigtsmæssig. Nogle af de traditionelle segmenter (ingeniørerne) fravælger HD (1.del) til fordel for alternativer. Spørgsmål om der var forskelle mellem de forskellige HD. Spørgsmål om metode-indlæring blev som et væsentligt element fremhævet for at sikre såvel fagligt fokus som kvalitetsniveau. HD har et godt omdømme, vigtigt at fastholde det faglige niveau. De studerende lægger stor vægt på en international anerkendelse ligesom spørgsmål om en international anerkendt titel. Af spørgeskemaet fremstår at de studerende selv initierer beslutningsprocessen om valg af HD studiet. Spørgsmål om mulighed for customization sammenkædet med fleksibilitet og vejledning.

Abstract: The focus of this thesis is an analysis of the legal aspects and use of surveys in trademark and marketing practice litigation in Norway. I examine the legal relevance of surveys and analyse how they are considered as evidence by the courts and administrative bodies. Human behaviour can be defined within a legal context by interpreting legal sources and also by developing a survey based on the market place. In this thesis, I compare the use of survey findings as evidence of human perceptions in the context of the average consumer who represents the opinion of the relevant group. If the factual public opinion of the respective group of addressees is taken into consideration, the rules are interpreted with a basis in the market place (reality), and not within a formal legal framework (abstraction)...

An Integrated Research reviewCumberland, Flemming (Frederiksberg, 2005)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The market penetration problematic has been subject to consideration in the scientific literature, however, hitherto not on the basis of a coherent and applied theory. Based on selected fields of theory, e.g. ex ante it is presumed that such theories may contribute to the development within the market penetration problematic, and this forms the purpose of this scientific article, i.e. to critically evaluate and compare the basics of such theories, analytic argumentation and fields of application. A meta-theoretical argumentation will apply, as such contributions containing estimated of potential theoretical and methodological flaws – have been surprising limited in numbers. Selected perspectives are not only considered a product of the scientific context, i.e. perspective, within which they were developed, but additionally in relation to the perspective utility value as framework of analysis and terms in this context..

Toward a Dynamic Property Rights PerspectiveFoss, Kirsten; J. Foss, Nicolai (København, 1998)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: We discuss the relations between alternative conceptualizations of the market process - neoclassical, Austrian and radical subjectivist/evolutionary - and alternative approaches to economic organization, for example, nexus of contract theory, Williamsonian transaction cost economics and the dynamic transaction cost approach of Langlois and Robertson. We argue that there is a distinct need for more firmly grounding theories of economic organization in theories of the market process, and that key ideas of the more dynamic conceptualizations of the market are likely to substantially enrichen the theory of economic organization.

Some Indications of Rule-followingJukka Kaisla, Jukka (København, 1998)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper examines the nature of genuine uncertainty and rule-following behaviour and suggests some implications for the theory of the firm. The firm is seen here as emerging as a means to manage some of the experienced uncertainty. The nature of the firm is perceived as an evolving institution creating predictability both inside the firm and in the market. But because of the spontaneous nature of life-world, social processes remain open-ended. This subjectivist perspective cannot assign any particular premeditated purpose to the spontaneous order which emerges through the market process. The process is not kaleidic but nor is it considered to be moving toward increasing efficiency either. Rules and institutions provide predictability to the extent that novelties can be introduced to the process. Discoveries do not, however, only introduce new outcomes in the market process, they also change the rules of the game. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8100 Files in this item: 1

Promoting Rule Compliance and Good Governance PracticeGregoric, Aleksandra; Zajc, Katarina; Simoneti, Marko (København, 2007)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The paper re-examines the concerns on the rule-based governance in poor institutional environment. By relying on the theories and research vehicles of social psychology, we show that under certain conditions, the ‘law on books’ may still play role in governing market transactions, even though no formal enforcement applies. We furthermore expose the potential of the Corporate Governance Code as the ‘signaling device’ and provide arguments as to why this potential may be even stronger in an environment with relatively weak institutions in comparison to the developed market economies.
