“…Although it is not easy to establish technological collaborations, it is even more important to successfully manage the cooperation after it has been established (Gulati, 1998;Noteboom, 1999). These knowledge-seeking alliances create potential challenges to developing country managers in managing the process such as developing strong technological absorption capabilities and learning mechanisms (Davenport and Miller, 2000). A study on New Zealand's semiconductor alliances indicate that social processes, such as the development of trust and social embeddedness between the partners, which can, in turn, result in increased co-specialization, allow the risk of such alliances to be reduced (Davenport and Miller, 2000).…”

Purpose-This paper aims to shed light on the relationship between partnerships and innovation efforts of the firms. The goal is to understand whether Turkish firms collaborate for innovation or not and, if they do, what is the impact of partnerships on the innovation performance of firms? Design/methodology/approach-In this research, a survey methodology is employed. The questionnaire is implemented through structured interviews conducted with 135 Turkish companies from the textile, chemical, food and machinery industries. Findings-The findings show that Turkish firms have high-collaboration ties with other companies in particular but the existing partnerships have a weak impact on innovation performance. Research limitations/implications-As only one country is studied and data come from one year, the findings of this study are limited in terms of generalizing the results for a wide variety of developing countries. Practical implications-Non-materialized performance is to a degree due to low quality of relationships, but more importantly Turkish firms need to find ways to improve their partnerships and in-house capabilities, particularly their absorptive capacities, if they want to improve their innovativeness through partnerships. Originality/value-This paper is one of the early examples empirically investigating the relationship between technology collaborations and innovation performance of firms in a developing country context.

“…Some examples of emerging technologies have been mobile technology, social media, GPS, the Internet of things, wireless technology and the internet. Emerging technologies are capable of changing the ways of communication, the interaction between users and organizations, facilitating communication and interactions, as well as reducing time and costs (Davenport and Miller, 2000;Alexander, 2008;Degennaro, 2008;Bishop, 2012;Low and Johnston, 2012;Galloway, 2013;Surie, 2013).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify the factors that generate public value in e-government services through emerging technologies and to answer the following question: Which are the factors that generate public value, in the e-government services, through emerging technologies? Design/methodology/approach Based on a multivariate linear regression model, the author tests the public value of e-government services through emerging technologies in the metropolitan area of the Toluca Valley. Five factors are evaluated to understand public value: anti-corruption strategies, access to public information, transparency platforms, social media and service kiosks. Findings Smart strategies and technologies must be guided by the generation of public value through anti-corruption strategies, open data, access to information and data privacy. The efforts of governments should focus on avoiding corruption, making government transparent, opening data and correct handling of information privacy. Technology is an important mechanism to boost public value generation. Research limitations/implications Mexico is a developing country, and there are very few emerging technologies implemented in e-Government. Practical implications The results are important to identify good practices for the generation of public value in the e-Government area. Originality/value The study of emerging technologies is a new area in government, and this paper studies the generation of public value through emerging technologies in a developing country.

“…In fact, 'prior related knowledge' can be a critical resource for a company attempting to commercialise a new technology and an important reason why firms with similar and overlapping capabilities collaborate with each other (Davenport and Miller, 2000).…”

Abstract:The way in which companies, research centres and educational institutions are organised and structured may provide a competitive advantage for commercialisation, in particular if companies are dependent on the deployment of complementary assets and capabilities by third parties.This paper presents the case of the Australian Centre for Plant Functional Genomics (ACPFG), a private agricultural biotechnology (agbiotech) company specialising in early stage Research and Development (R&D) to produce superior adapted cereal varieties, tolerant to abiotic stress conditions such as drought, frost, salt, or mineral toxicity, all of which have a direct and negative impact on plant growth and crop productivity.The organisational structure of the company has been influenced and shaped by Government policy, shareholders expectations and trends in the agbiotech industrial organisation. It has proved attractive to potential alliance partners for collaborative R&D and commercialisation.We present the ACPFG as a new business model to fund basic research and facilitate technology transfer.
