Forskningsöversikt (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Denna artikel presenterar 2020 års pristagare av Global Award for Entrepreneurship Research – John Haltiwanger – och de bidrag han har gjort inom entreprenörskapsforskningen. Haltiwanger har bl a bidragit till att förbättra vår förståelse av hur jobb skapas och försvinner, kartlägga vilka faktorer som styr produktivitet samt analysera hur småföretag bidrar till den ekonomiska utvecklingen. Hans forskning har inspirerat såväl policydebatt som nationella statistikmyndigheter världen över.

A gender sensitive perspective of corporate culture and the spawning of intrapreneurs
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- We reconcile the theory on corporate culture and gender to develop and test hypotheses predicting the spawning of intrapreneurs. The results from a representative, large scale survey of employees in Swedish private companies suggest a gender sensitive perspective on corporate culture, which relaxes the assumption of cultural homogeneity. Specifically, a competitive corporate culture is likely to spawn male intrapreneurs, whereas a corporate culture with intrapreneurial role models spawns both male and female intrapreneurs, but particularly female. Implications for management of the growing organizations with regard to corporate entrepreneurship, human resources, and gender equality are discussed.

How planned behavior drives employee intentions to pursue new product and service development
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper demonstrates the relevance of the theory of planned behavior to predict the drivers of employee intentions to become engaged in the development of new products and services. The results from a survey of 3,435 employees of Swedish companies, including small, medium-sized, and large firms, reveal a number of factors related to attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control that have either a positive or a negative influence on the presence of such intentions. We further show how the strength of the identified relationships varies with firm size. Overall, the findings suggest that firms may differ substantially, in terms of their ability to support employee initiatives that are critical for sustained introduction of new products and services. Our study contributes to the corporate entrepreneurship literature by explaining how organizational and individual conditions drive the introduction of new products and services.

Weathering storms – Technological exploration of MNCs in times of financial crisis
- 2023
-
Ingår i: Journal of world business (Print). - : Elsevier BV. - 1090-9516 .- 1878-5573. ; 58:2, s. 101416-101416

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We generate new knowledge about financial crises and their consequences for MNC technological development, thereby addressing a largely uncharted issue at the crossroads of the organization, strategy and international business literatures. Drawing on threat-rigidity theory, we argue that financial crises have an overall negative effect on MNC technological exploration and that the strength of the effect differs across greenfield and acquired subsidiaries. Results from an empirical investigation of 21 MNCs over the 1890–2008 period suggest that the dampening effect of financial crises on technological exploration is confined to home-country units and greenfield subsidiaries, whereas it is found to be of less significance among acquired foreign subsidiaries. We suggest that such differentiation within the MNC is indicative of a previously unobserved advantage from multinationality, which allows it to smoothen the effects of financial crises on long-term technological development and corporate growth.

Who is in and who is out? : Integration of technological knowledge in the multinational corporation
- 2019
-
Ingår i: Industrial and Corporate Change. - : OXFORD UNIV PRESS. - 0960-6491 .- 1464-3650. ; 28:3, s. 437-457

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article concerns the integration of technological knowledge within multinational corporations (MNCs). We empirically investigate the degree of technological knowledge integration of competence-creating subsidiaries with headquarters and sister subsidiaries and explore the effects of intersubsidiary differentiation. Data on the complete US patenting activity of 22 Swedish multinationals from 1893 to 2008 reveal significant differences in degrees of technological knowledge integration. As expected, the results show that greenfield subsidiaries are more integrated with headquarters and other greenfield subsidiaries than with acquired subsidiaries. In contrast, acquired subsidiaries do not appear to be as easily integrated into the MNC, and for this group the empirical evidence shows very little integration of technological knowledge. The findings provide extended insights into the role of competence-creating subsidiaries as providers of technological knowledge to headquarters and other MNC subsidiaries, and suggest a distinct pattern of subsidiary knowledge integration, ordered by what appears to be in-groups and out-groups, that has been overlooked in the prior MNC literature.

Win, place, or show? : How foreign market entry strategies contribute to the technological growth of the multinational corporation
- 2012
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper investigates the sources of technological growth of the multinational corporation. We conceptualize and shed empirical light on whether foreign investment strategies based on advanced greenfield subsidiaries, acquired subsidiaries, or a combination of both increase the likelihood of entry into technologies that represent new additions to the MNC’s technology portfolio. Repeated events analyses of the complete U.S. patenting activity in 226 foreign locations of 21 Swedish multinationals reveal a substantially higher likelihood of entry into new technologies among investment strategies based on foreign acquisitions, as opposed to investment strategies based on greenfield establishments only. To the extent MNC managers seek to enhance technological and strategic renewal through the expansion of foreign operations, the findings suggest that foreign investment strategies that involve the use of acquisitions are and should be the preferred alternative.
