- How does the local government stimulate knowledge intensive industry, within a regional innovation system? That is the research question for this paper. We analyze the development of the nanotechnology industry in Suzhou and the electrical vehicle industry in Hangzhou. They are used as cases to analyze the role of local government, and we do so from four aspects, namely technology, human capital, market and finance. In these cases, the local government helped the emerging industry not only in stimulating technological collaboration but also in creating market demand. While the local governments stimulated all four aspects listed above, the incentive to create demand has been particularly crucial.

- An aspect of innovation spaces in China is the development of entrepreneurship in advanced sectors, addressed here. The main focus is upon how four ventures within nanotechnology can develop, through analysing interactions between key variables within the model of knowledge intensive entrepreneurship. Nano represents a series of emerging technologies, and ones that are often seen to be ones that are interdisciplinary and involve a distributed form of knowledge amongst many different actors such as universities, existing large firms, and entrepreneurial firms. The rapid development of science-based industries of nanotechnology is one based on ample technological and market opportunities, and these opportunities are being created between the entrepreneur (person), the entrepreneurial venture (organization) and the national innovation system. Analytical focus is put on the role of regional and institutional support such as the government loans and the science park as well as the specific characteristics of the founders, including international networks. The chapter focuses upon four in-depth case study of Chinese firms, based in Suzhou Industrial Park. The firms are Beaver Nano-Technologies Co., Ltd; Poynova Materials Suzhou Ltd; Hanano; and Nano-Micro Technology Company.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- With the global market development, more and more Chinese companies set up their R&D centres in western countries in order to access the latest technology, to develop products for local market demand in developing countries, and transfer technologies to China. However, the development of China Euro Vehicle Technology Company (CEVT), a wholly subsidiary of Geely Auto, shows a specific strategic role and management system of Chinese overseas R&D centre. Taking the fast growth of CEVT in three years as case, the chapter explores the distinguish role of CEVT in the globalization strategies of Geely, who is a facilitator to drive Geely and Geely Auto to become a real global company. The chapter suggests that the independent technology company can work as a broker between bilateral companies of an M&A event not only at the aspect of new product and technology development but also at the aspect of global market strategy after the acquisition and merge. The chapter will provide insights to the strategy and management of international R&D centres, and the global R&D strategy management, especially for companies in mature industries from emerging countries.

Co-Evolution of Knowledge-Intensive Entrepreneurial Firms and Science Parks in an Entrepreneurial Ecosystem: Capabilities supporting BioBay at Suzhou Industry Park, China
- 2019

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Public-policy makers in emerging economics often want to stimulate knowledge- intensive industries, as a means to catch-up with innovation-based advanced economies. Literature on regional innovation systems and ecosystems have extensively studied agglomeration effects, and often with a focus upon the particular role of stimulating universities and scientific research. Yet funding science is not enough, due to what we identify as three complex issues related to the development of capabilities in firms and public agencies at the local-global interface. In catch-up theory, public policy which stimulates science-based industries can be seen as policy reacting to a short window of technological opportunity. In this paper, we are specifically focused upon public-private co-evolution in the biotech-pharmaceutical industry, which is highly dependent upon internal R&D and public science but also specific knowledge about national markets and global regulations. Based upon a seven-year qualitative study, we focus upon a science park in a second tier Chinese city, namely BioBay at Suzhou Industry Park. We propose a co-evolutionary process model of one element of the ecosystem, namely how increasing scale, learning and interactions between knowledge-intensive entrepreneurial firms and science parks lead to the development of both public and private capabilities to react upon this technological opportunity through entrepreneurship.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- With the rise of Chinese economy and the internationalization of Chinese companies, some Chinese companies, such as Huawei and Alibaba, have become leading companies in the global market. At the same time, many Chinese companies are still struggling to improve their innovation capabilities and competitiveness in the global value chain. This leads to a number of interesting topics of research. In recent years, some Chinese companies have grown from imitation to innovation, and have created leading edge technical competencies in the world. Moreover, from a policy perspective, China would very much like to further develop into an innovative country, relying on independent innovation. The internal technical competencies of companies are still critical in the process to be an innovative country, even in an internet era. Of course, also non-technical perspectives, such as business model innovation, e-commerce, and the usage of internet, are much emphasized in the social and economic development driven by innovation.

Ingår i: Workshop on knowledge-intensive innovative ecosystems, Zheijang University.
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- China aims to become the leader in the new energy vehicles (NEV in short). This paper addresses, How does the local government in a developing country foster the development of emerging industry in a regional innovation system? The paper does so by focusing upon new energy vehicle industries in Hangzhou, China.Our research reveals that a local government should help the emerging industry to build an innovation system not only in the perspective of technological cooperation but also in the perspective of creating market demand. The research suggests that it is critical to build an eco-system to enable the companies to easily access the emerging technology, to recruit talents, and to find customers and/or supplies in order to foster the emergence and development of emerging industries. The research on the NEV commercialization in China is limited, and hence this chapter has an empirical contribution as well as the theoretical contribution

How Overseas R&D Center to Maximize the Benefits after Cross-Border M&A: Case of CEVT in Geely Group
- 2017
-
Ingår i: The 15th Globelics Conference, Athens, Greece, 11-13 October, 2017. - Denmark : Globelics Organization.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- With the global market development, more and more Chinese companies conduct overseas M&A and set up their R&D centres in advanced countries in order to access the latest technology, to develop products for local market demand, transfer technologies to China, and improve their innovation capabilities and competitiveness. However, it is still a critical and urgent problem faced by those Chinese companies to achieve and maximize their benefits after M&A and from the overseas R&D centres. The development of China Euro Vehicle Technology Company (CEVT), a wholly subsidiary of Geely Auto after the M&A of Geely Group and Volvo Cars, is taken as a case to explore how an overseas R&D centre play roles and contribute to the benefits of company after M&A. The fast growth of CEVT and Geely Auto and Volvo Cars illustrates that CEVT is as the broker, the promoter, and the creator to maximize the benefits after M&A. The paper reveals that the overseas research centre can provide benefits to Chinese MNEs at the strategy and governance, the new product development, the market diffusion, and the revenues. The paper suggests that the activities for the new brand and the development of new CMA platform work as two channels of the technology transfer and cooperation among CEVT, Geely Auto and Volvo Cars, and the technology spill over based on the win-win of Geely Auto and Volvo Cars. It is a unique and novel mechanism for bridging and building between the merged companies. The paper will provide ideas to the theories and practices of international R&D centres, and the global R&D strategy management, especially for companies in mature industries.

- 2016
-
Ingår i: Globelics 2016 Conference. - Indonesien : Globelics organization, 14th annual conference, Bandung Indonesien, Conference held 12-14 October 2016.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Reverse innovation refers to the process that technology or innovation or new products are developed in developing countries or for markets in developing countries and then are transferred from developing countries to advanced countries. However, the reverse innovation taken by enterprises from developing countries is still under research. The paper illustrates types of reverse innovation adopted by enterprises from developing countries based on cases of Chinese enterprises. In addition, this paper proposes a matrix framework to identify ideal types of reverse innovation for enterprises without overseas R&D centers from aspects of the innovation strategy and the location of commercialization. Three ideal types of reverse innovation are identified and tested. Their characteristics and implementation are analyzed too. Strategic suggestions on implementation of reverse innovation are provided to enterprises in developing countries at the end of paper.
