The main purpose of the article is to identify the state of knowledge between two multidimensional phenomena: commercialization of innovation and internationalization. In terms of research methods, a systematic literature review, based on the 91 publications located in reputable scientific...

In this paper, we empirically examine how a supplier firm benefits from supply chain technology spillover in its product invention, and how customer concentration mitigates such a positive effect. Using a panel of approximately 1,670 U.S. technology-intensive supplier firms during the period...

Until recently, different types of innovation strategy have been introduced in innovation studies. However, their effects on firms' market performance have been under-explored. To overcome this limitation, we empirically examined the effect of different innovation strategies on firms' market...

Research & development (R&D) performance has been a competitive advantage for high-tech industries. This paper presents an empirical study in which we used Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to evaluate the R&D performance of 31 computers and peripherals firms located at Hsinchu Science-based...

Following the increasing discourse among scholars and manufacturers on industry 4.0, there has been a growing curiosity to realize its potential. This paper aims at identifying the prominent industry 4.0 technologies that Germany, as a leading country in this area, is researching on. The...

The authors examine the timing and quality of product introduction in an R&D stopping game, where they allow for horizontal and vertical differentiation in the product market. They observe that discontinuous changes in introduction dates can occur as firms' abilities as researchers change....

We examine the timing and quality of product introduction in an R&D stopping game, where we allow for horizontal and vertical differentiation in the product market. We observe that discontinuous changes in introduction dates can occur as firms' abilities as researchers change. Further, when the...

We consider a model of horizontal product differentiation between two firms where locations are identified with eco-quality. The duopolists face spillover effects and locations are determined endogenously through R&D investments. We examine the resulting equilibrium locations when consumers...

This Article considers the spillover effects of trademarks - in particular, brand spillovers, which occur when consumer interest in a trademark increases the profits of third parties who do not own the trademark. Using techniques such as loss leaders and shelf space adjacency, retailers...

We model how risk-neutral firms’ ability to obtain substantial private returns on marginal new technologies causes them to "reach for mediocrity" by investing in socially suboptimal projects, even in the presence of competition and new entrants. Focusing primarily on pharmaceutical innovation,...
