Henri A Schildt, Markku V J Maula, Thomas Keil, Explorative and exploitative learning from external corporate ventures, Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice, Vol. 29 (4), 2005. (Journal Article)
This study examines the antecedents of explorative and exploitative learning of technological knowledge from external corporate ventures. We compare different forms of external corporate venturing, namely corporate venture capital investments, alliances, joint ventures, and acquisitions, as alternative avenues for interorganizational learning. Furthermore, we test the effects of multiple relational characteristics on the type of learning outcomes. Our empirical analysis is based on citations in patents filed by a sample of 110 largest U.S. public information and communications technology companies during the years 1992–2000. We find that corporate venturing mode and technological relatedness have significant effects on the likelihood of explorative learning. |

Thomas Keil, Markku Maula, Shaker A Zahra, New ventures' inward licensing: examining the effects of industry and strategy characteristics, European Management Review, Vol. 2 (3), 2005. (Journal Article)
New ventures compete by creating innovative products. Liabilities of newness and inexperience, limited resources, rapid technological obsolescence and constantly changing market conditions often encourage new ventures to license other companies' technologies to complement and augment their internally developed innovations. Building on the knowledge-based view of the firm, we propose that the intensity of new ventures' use of inward licensing reflects the demands of their industries and competitive strategies. The results of an empirical study of 361 US new ventures show that industry characteristics and competitive strategy influence their inward licensing as a means of lowering costs and maintaining strategic flexibility while building their capabilities. |

Matti Keloharju, Kjell G. Nyborg, Kristian Rydqvist, Strategic behavior and underpricing in uniform price auctions: Evidence from finnish treasury auctions, Journal of Finance, Vol. 60 (4), 2005. (Journal Article)
We contribute to the debate on the optimal design of multiunit auctions by developingand testing robust implications of the leading theory of uniform price auctions on the bid distributions submitted by individual bidders. The theory, which emphasizes market power, has little support in a data set of Finnish Treasury auctions. A reason may be that the Treasury acts strategically by determining supply after observing bids, apparently treating the auctions as a repeated game between itself and primary dealers. Bidder behavior and underpricing react to the volatility of bond returns in a way that suggests bidders adjust for the winner’s curse. |

Charlotte K Hemelrijk, Hanspeter Kunz, Density distribution and size sorting in fishschools: an individual-based model, Behavioral Ecology, Vol. 16 (1), 2005. (Journal Article)
In fish schools the density varies per location and often individuals are sorted according to familiarity and/or body size. Highdensity is considered advantageous for protection against predators and this sorting is believed to be advantageous not only toavoid predators but also for finding food. In this paper, we list a number of mechanisms and we study, with the help of anindividual-based model of schooling agents, which spatial patterns may result from them. In our model, schooling is regulated bythe following rules: avoiding those that are close by, aligning to those at intermediate distances, and moving towards othersfurther off. Regarding kinship/familiarity, we study patterns that come about when agents actively choose to be close to relatedagents (i.e., ‘active sorting’). Regarding body size, we study what happens when agents merely differ in size but behave accordingto the usual schooling rules (‘size difference model’), when agents choose to be close to those of similar size, and when smallagents avoid larger ones (‘risk avoidance’). Several spatial configurations result: during ‘active sorting’ familiar agents grouptogether anywhere in the shoal, but agents of different size group concentrically, whereby the small agents occupy the center andthe large ones the periphery (‘size difference model’ and ‘active sorting’). If small agents avoid the risk of being close to largeones, however, small agents end up at the periphery and large ones occupy the center (‘risk avoidance’). Spatial configurationsare also influenced by the composition of the group, namely the percentage of agents of each type. Furthermore, schools areusually oblong and their density is always greatest near the front. We explain the way in which these patterns emerge and indicatehow results of our model may guide the study of spatial patterns in real animals. |
