Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author's abstract: The majority of the OSCM literature suggests that firm innovation is positively associated with firm performance. However, as evidenced by some of the innovation failures in the real world, this seemingly intuitive relationship between innovation and firm performance has the potential to be quite nuanced and counterintuitive. Hence in this dissertation, I seek further understanding related to (1) extant OSCM research regarding the innovation-performance relationship and (2) types of firm innovation strategies- being a leader or a laggard- which will financially benefit a firm according to the market they operate in, essentially informing the management how the industry will determine whether they need to innovate or not. Essay 1 systematically reviews the extant OSCM literature on innovation focusing on research utilizing Patent and R&D data. Based on a total population of 176 Patent and R&D data-based empirical papers, I develop a novel framework based on patent measurement class data and R&D operationalization method, to guide the consistent application of patent and R&D data in future OSCM research. I also identify fifteen measurement issues falling under three classes categorized by the magnitude of their impact (high/medium or low impact) on data analysis that can impair the inferences drawn from interpreting the results. In Essay 2 I explore the conditions under which firm innovation could benefit (impede) firm performance. This specifically involves investigating the financial and operational implications of a firm’s choosing to be leading (lagging) innovators within the context of innovative (non-innovative) industries. Using generalized structural equation modeling on a sample of 18,870 firm-quarter observations belonging to the manufacturing organizations of the United States for the period from 2000 to 2020 obtained from Compustat, I find out that a firm playing in a highly innovative market will be financially better off by opting to be a laggard instead of a leader, and that being a leader or a laggard doesn’t essentially make a difference for a firm operating in a non-innovative market. Accordingly, contrary to the conventional belief that being innovative is always associated with superior firm performance, management should choose their innovation strategy based on how innovative the industry is.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation examines product positioning and development strategies by firms. Product strategies not only determine a firm's performance, but they also influence the types of goods that are available in the market. I conduct empirical evaluations on how rivalries shape product decisions, and propose a framework that guides firms to devise incentive schemes to spur new ideas which are vital to the development of innovative products. I begin by focusing on product differentiation strategy among rivals. I develop a theoretical model on programming choice by rival broadcasters in the media industry. The model predicts that the level of product differentiation is determined by the relative strengths of the rivals. I test this model using data from the Chinese satellite television industry. I analyze dynamic product positioning activities of 30 satellite television channels with respect to their dominant rival. Consistent with theory, the empirical evidence shows that weaker firms are more responsive when compared to the stronger ones to differentiate their products from the dominant rival. In a second study, I focus on product imitation strategy among rivals. I empirically examine whether rivals imitate each other when they operate in uncertain market environments. Using data from the Chinese satellite television industry, I analyze product spatial distances between the satellite television channels before and after the commercialization of the dominant rival. I find that rivals cluster in product space when they are attacked by the dominant rival. Moreover, the level of clustering is most intense immediately following the industry shock, and less so as time progresses. I find mixed evidence on firms selectively cluster with rivals that are perceived to possess superior market information. In the final essay, co-authored with John Morgan, we propose how firms may employ tournament incentive schemes to stimulate innovations which are essential to creating new products. Governments and foundations have successfully harnessed tournaments to generate innovative ideas. Yet this tool is not widely used by firms. We offer a framework for managers seeking to organize tournaments for ideas. We present the theoretical underpinnings of tournaments. We then connect the theory with three recent business concepts - the power of the network, the wisdom of crowds, and the leverage of intrinsic motivations - that boost the effectiveness of tournaments.

Book excerpt: Abstract: This dissertation is comprised of in depth analysis on the broader topic of corporate innovation strategy, which identifies the mechanisms of how firms' factor market strategies shape product market strategies and consequent economic performance. The first chapter builds mathematical models, which show the performance implications of research and development (R&D) mode choices in connection with product market entry strategies. The second essay looks at the economic outcomes of the combination of various choices regarding R&D mode, time-to-market, and product innovativeness based on the pharmaceutical firms' new drug development data. The final essay investigates a fundamental question of this dissertation, specifically, how firms evolve their factor market and product market strategies in response to rivals' actions. Existing studies on the factor market strategy emphasize the use of an appropriate form for R&D to obtain high economic performance (Williamson, 1979). Research on the product market strategy, on the other hand, focuses primarily on the implementation of effective entry strategies to obtain high performance (Lieberman and Montgomery, 1989). Although numerous existing studies have found interesting implications regarding factor market or product market strategies, little effort has been made to reconcile these two types of the corporate innovation strategy. This dissertation investigates the simultaneous effects of factor and product market strategies on economic performance. In the models of this dissertation, firms can choose an R&D mode between in-house and in-license as part of their factor market strategies. For product market strategies, firms can decide on the timing of their new product introduction and the performance of the new products. This dissertation creates these choice sets and examines which choice set leads firms to obtain the highest economic performance. Moreover, a theoretical framework is provided, which explains how both factor market rivalry and product market rivalry evolve over time by interacting with each other. Many prior studies on product market rivalry have documented the existence of mutual forbearance between firms that share overlapping product markets. However, the impact of factor market rivalry on firms' behaviors has been less focused in prior studies. This paper fills this gap in existing research by investigating the impact of factor market and production market rivalries on the entry decisions of firms.

Book excerpt: In this thesis, I study sources of innovation and the choices established firms, researchers/entrepreneurs, and venture capitalist make when pursuing innovation. There are three main sources of innovation. First, an innovation can be produced by researchers working inside a large firm. Second, it can result from a collaboration among established firms, researchers, and entrepreneurial start-ups. Finally, an innovation can be created by a start-up. In the latter case, the successful start-up can be either acquired by an established firm or continue to be a stand-alone company. In most cases such a start-up needs to raise outside funding, which is often provided by a venture capital fund. Chapter 1 considers the choices firms and researchers/entrepreneurs make when deciding to pursue innovation together. In this chapter I use an incomplete contracting framework to model the choice between three innovation strategies: an acquisition, an employment contract, and an alliance. Each of these options comes with different contracting frictions that lead to distortions in the agents' innovation effort levels. The agents choose the innovation strategy that maximizes their joint surplus by minimizing the effect of these distortions. In particular, the agents are trading off the hold-up costs characterizing acquisitions, wage restrictions in employment contracts, and possible IP rights conflicts in alliances. My theoretical model generates predictions about the organizational structures used to innovate, and can explain (1) why talent acquisitions were popular among tech companies in 2010--14, (2) why large pharmaceutical companies switched from conducting research internally to pursuing acquisitions, alliances, and licensing agreements, and (3) why some companies engage in alliances, while others don't. Chapter 2 considers start-ups and their origins. I find that people who work in VC-backed start-ups are more likely to become founders of VC-backed start-ups than employees of public companies or private companies not financed by venture capital. I also show that founders come from more successful VC-backed companies. Finally, workers leave their current employment to start new companies: after an IPO or after a failure of a VC-backed company to raise another round of funding. Chapter 3 considers one of the important decisions made by venture capitalists and other partnerships. In this chapter I model the choice of the optimal number of partners. As more partners join, the profits of the partnership grow due to synergy. However, each partner's share of the profits shrinks leading to moral hazard. In addition, as the founder needs to find more partners, it becomes harder to find good candidates and the type of the marginal partner decreases. The model suggests that higher benefits from starting a fund, faster decreasing type of a marginal partner and higher type of the founder can potentially explain why VC funds are smaller than professional service firms.
