Authors: Eisold, Hans-Elmar
Abstract: Die Standortnotwendigkeit ist Problem und Chance für Unternehmen (Standortsuche) und Standorte (Standortmarketing) gleichermaßen. Unternehmen sind dabei dem Einfluss durch die Gewichtung von Shareholder- und/oder Stakeholderinteressen unterworfen und der Wirkung harter wie weicher Standortfaktoren ausgesetzt. Die klassische Standortlehre allein stellt dabei nur einen unzureichenden Handlungsablauf dar. Ihr gegenüber ist die Annahme eines Standortfaktorenmix mit objektiven wie subjektiven Kriterien sinnvoller. Die Standortanalyse klassischer Ansätze kann durch verhaltens- und strukturorientierte Vorgehensweisen sinnvoll erweitert werden, um dem Situationsgemenge aus ökonomischem Ziel, unternehmerischer Situation und subjetiver Standortentscheidung besser gerecht zu werden. Die Annahme vollständiger Produktionsverlagerung weicht der Verlagerung einzelner Wertschöpfungsstufen innerhalb einer Wertschöpfungskette. Ein vernünftiger Analyse- und Entscheidungprozess muss daher ganzheitlicher erfolgen und führt dann zu besser abgesicherten Antworten auf die Fragen nach dem "was" wird "weshalb" notwendigerweise "wohin" verlagert.</summary>

Authors: Zucchini, Leon; Claussen, Jörg; Trüg, Moritz
Abstract: Mobile telecommunication operators routinely charge subscribers lower prices for calls on their own network than for calls to other networks (on-net discounts). Studies on tariff-mediated network effects suggest this is due to large operators using on-net discounts to damage smaller rivals. Alternatively, research on strategic discounting suggests small operators use on-net discounts to advertise with low on-net prices. We test the relative strength of these effects using data on tariff setting in German mobile telecommunications between 2001 and 2009. We find that large operators are more likely to offer tariffs with on-net discounts but there is no consistently significant difference in the magnitude of discounts. Our results suggest that tariff-mediated network effects are the main cause of on-net discounts.</summary>

Authors: Harhoff, Dietmar
Abstract: Innovation processes within corporations increasingly tap into international technology sources, yet little is known about the relative contribution of different types of innovation channels. We investigate the effectiveness of different types of international technology sourcing activities using survey information on German companies complemented with information from the European Patent Office. German firms with inventors based in the US disproportionately benefit from R&amp;D knowledge located in the US. The positive influence on total factor productivity is larger if the research of the inventors results in co-applications of patents with US companies. Moreover, research cooperation with American suppliers also enables German firms to better tap into US R&amp;D, but cooperation with customers and competitors does not appear to aid technology sourcing. The results suggest that the “brain drain” to the US can have upsides for corporations tapping into American know-how.</summary>

Abstract: The introduction of a new product generation forces incumbents in network industries to rebuild their installed base to maintain an advantage over potential entrants. We study if backward compatibility moderates this process of rebuilding an installed base. Using a structural model of the U.S. market for handheld game consoles, we show that backward compatibility lets incumbents transfer network effects from the old generation to the new to some extent but that it also reduces supply of new software. We examine the tradeoff between technological progress and backward compatibility and find that backward compatibility matters less if there is a large technological leap between two generations. We subsequently use our results to assess the role of backward compatibility as a strategy to sustain market leadership.</summary>
