Technological Uncertainty and Standardization Strategies: A Coopetition Framework
基于卢森堡企业调查数据,研究发现面临技术不确定性的企业更倾向于通过竞争或竞合机制实现标准化,而非合作。
Standards may be arrived at through various coordination mechanisms, including cooperation, coopetition, or competition. This article explores how technological uncertainty affects the coordination mechanism for standardization. The article is based on the Community Innovation Survey, a sizeable firm-level survey representative of the Luxembourgish economy. The econometric analysis finds evidence that firms facing technological uncertainty will choose for standardization through competition and coopetition.
