- The mobile phone attracts an increasing number of service applications enabled by technical developments. On-going efforts aim to widen the scope of mobile payments and “turning the mobile phone into a wallet” with the help of Near Field Technology (NFC). A number of industries are involved in this development. To enable large scale commercial application of the new technology for mobile payments, several global industry associations, what we label Global Policy Networks (GPNs), are involved in standard setting, certification, visions and promotion of business applications, etc. The purpose of the paper is to analyze the role of GPNs in establishing global policies to enable business actors to develop and implement local policies applying the new technology for business purposes. The paper focuses on how some yet to be settled global policy issues affect local policies.

Service innovations enabled by the "internet of things"
- 2015

Ingår i: IMP Journal. - : Emerald. - 0809-7259. ; 9:1, s. 85-106

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The purpose of this paper is to develop a new conceptual framework that reflects network dynamics in Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled service innovation processes. Design/methodology/approach -- Based on literature on service innovations, business networks and IoT, dynamic concepts are selected. Aided by information about an evolving case "The connected vehicle", propositions about interaction between the variables in the framework are formulated. Findings -- A conceptual framework consisting of four interacting variables: overlapping, intermediating, objectification of actors and business modelling is developed, linking several streams of research. Propositions are motivated and issues for further research questions formulated. Research limitations/implications -- The framework may stimulate further research on IoT-enabled service innovations. Practical implications -- Understanding network dynamics for developing and implementing business models for service innovations.

Technical development and the formation of new business ventures, The case of new mobile payment and ticketing services

- How do new business ventures emerge, and how is their emergence linked to technical development? What are the challenges of forming new business ventures when the business involves the connection of previously unconnected or loosely connected networks? This paper analyses the connections between technical development and the formation of new business ventures. A set of case studies is presented that show how existing market structures, business development and associated wireless, technologies and systems are affected by the emergence of new mobile payment and ticketing services. This paper presents result from an on-going research project on near field communication based services in Sweden. In late 2008 the project “Foundation For NFC/Sensor Network B2B2C Services” (FORCE) was initiated by TeliaSonera Mobile Network, KTH Center for Wireless System, and Center for Information and Communication Research at the Stockholm School of Economics.

Activity Interdependence in Industrial Networks - Exploring the Structural Interconnectedness of Activities and Resources
- 2014

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Industrial activities are never undertaken in isolation, but need to be connected to each other in order to enable the production,exchange and use of industrial products and services, and related processes. This paper focuses on this connectedness by exploring upon the interdependence existing between individual activities.Three existing interdependency typologies are drawn upon, represented in Thompson (1967), Richardson (1972), and Håkansson et al (2009). All these have been extensively used in relation to the Industrial Network Approach (INA), and are subsequently recog- nized as relevant starting points for further exploration. The four alternative interdependency types presented in this paper enable the description and subsequent analysis of how activities connect in industrial networks. In relation to the existing typologies within the INA, these alternative types do not only enable an increased specification of how activities actually connect to each other. They also draw upon an underlying principle of the network model (Håkansson, 1987) by exploring upon one network dimension, resources, in the analysis of another dimension, activities.

“Betting on Science or Muddling Through the Network” : Two Universities and one Innovation Commission
- 2011

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Since the mid 1990s the OECD, the EU and many national innovation policies have pointed to universities as the most important direct providers of solutions to use as sources of innovations for growth and societal welfare. Also, through their respective governments, universities are exposed to rather detailed requirements on how to fulfil the increased direct utilisation of research results. This paper takes a closer look at how two internationally recognised universities from the same country, namely Sweden, addressed the innovation commission. A case study investigates how the Karolinska Institute and Uppsala University interpreted and implemented the Swedish government’s commission on an increased utilisation of publicly funded research for innovation. The main finding is that both universities’ ways of fulfilling this commission are more directed towards ‘betting’ on potential innovations than on ‘muddling through’ the context of innovation.
