  2. 2. Managing discontinuous changes in complex products : Cases involving the development and market introduction of heavy hybrid-electric buses

    Författare :Dedy Sushandoyo; Christian Berggren; Thomas Magnusson; Mats Magnusson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Discontinuous changes; complex products; discontinuous innovations; technology selections; development and market introduction; heavy hybrid-electric vehicles; the heavy vehicle industry; Diskontinuerliga förändringar; komplexa produkter; diskontinuerliga innovationer; teknologival; utveckling och marknadsintroduktion; tunga eldrivna hybridbussar; tunga bilindustrin;

    Sammanfattning : This is a study about managing the development of discontinuous changes in complex products characterised by integration of a significant amount of new technologies and firms’ existing technologies and market introduction of such products. In particular, this study analyses how firms’ technology selections influence the conditions for the firms to manage such development and market introduction. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Becoming a keystone: How incumbents can leverage technological change to create ecosystems

    Sammanfattning : The proliferation of digital technology and automation in the 21st century has created a need to revisit established theories on value creation. Exponential advances in Internet of Things (IoT) technologies are dismantling firm- and industry-specific value creation processes. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Dating for innovation : recognizing and creating opportunities in fluid environments through collaborative interorganizational relationships

    Författare :Cassandra Marshall; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Both practice and theory present good reason to believe that collaborative interorganizational relationships have become particularly important for innovation and new product development in industries characterized by rapid technological change and dynamic competition. Even though collaboration across organizational boundaries represents an important change in the way companies innovate and develop new products (services and processes), it appears as if the process and practical steps of such arrangements are scantly explored.
