Abstract:

This thesis explores the interplay between global finance and remote firms and institutions. It highlights the interactions between global institutional investors and Japanese firms on environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) standards, and the process of change in Japanese corporate governance practices. It focuses on analysing the responses of large Japanese firms with a high level of foreign ownership to global finance and global institutional investors' strategies for engagement.

In previous research, it is stated that founders/top managers have an impact on the born global firms, meaning firms that become international directly from start or short time after establishment. The purpose of our thesis is to understand how the characteristics of founders/top managers and entrepreneurial orientation have an impact on the born global firm’s innovation and outcome. Based on foundations in earlier studies we identified a research gap that this thesis aims to fill.

Information technology is playing an ever-increasing role in all areas of business. Logistics is no exception, and is one of the areas most affected by technological change. Many firms need to adapt technologically, or they might face extinction. This study aims to make firms aware of the power of information technology and the benefits it holds for those who use it.

Abstract:

In global markets firms respond to increased technological complexity, rising R&D costs, shortened product life cycles and improved market institutions by opening up their boundaries and leveraging inflows and outflows of knowledge and technology. Given these developments, the fundamental assumption of this dissertation is that firms increasingly transform from a closed to an open innovation model. While prior work has developed a first understanding of antecedents and outcomes of Open Innovation (OI), it has, so far, been less clear how firms create and capture value from OI. In that sense th

This study investigates the link between global integration -- defined as the intra-firm cross-border transfer of operational resources -- and performance in multinational professional engineering companies.

Abstract:

How can a firm improve the production of all its plants simultaneously? Many multinational firms have suggested they can do so by developing strategic production improvement programmes and implementing them in their dispersed network of plants. Instead of leaving every subsidiary to solve their own improvement issues, they offer a company-specific production system: an XPS. The ‘X’ stands for the company’s name, and ‘PS’ stands for production system or an equivalent. A few good examples include the Bosch Production System, Caterpillar Production System, Jotun Operations System, Nissan Producti

Abstract:

The fragmentation of production and the international outsourcing of tasks have led to the emergence of complex and borderless production systems named global value chains (GVCs). Recent theoretical works have shown that countries can profit from participation in GVCs through multiple channels. Given the relevance of this phenomenon, GVCs are becoming increasingly influential in shaping trade and FDI patterns as well as upgrading opportunities. In such integrated framework, the effects of tariff and non-tariff barriers can be more harmful than in traditional contexts. Therefore, when adopting

Abstract:

Sustainability and eco-innovation trends in business are increasingly diffused globally. The quest for sustainable materials to overcome the alarming global tendency of plastic ubiquity is one of the main reasons for such trends. It draws the attention of international actors in the business ranging from a big incumbent multinational company to a small but international firm. The phenomenon of a small firm that quickly becomes global is pervasive and contributes crucially to the global economy. Due to the born global (BG) novelty, internationalization in BG firms has been elaborated primarily

Abstract:

The Republic of Turkey is one of the so-called transition economies, those developing countries experiencing high rates of economic growth in recent years. Their path to growth deeply differs from that of already developed economies, mainly because of the very globalized economic world in which they live and operate. A fundamental aspect of economic globalization is foreign direct investment (FDI), which today involves emerging markets both as host and source countries. Indeed, Turkey is experiencing a sharp rise in inward and outward FDI, with national enterprises expanding abroad at a very r

Abstract:

Rise of offshoring services to developing countries has led to the participation of small offshoring services providers in the global value chains. Many inter-disciplinary researches have understood whether participation in global value chains (GVCs) leads to beneficial outcomes for small suppliers. However, the institutional dynamics that may hamper or support small supplier upgrading has not received much attention. This is especially true for small offshoring services providers (OSPs) who are operating in an adverse institutional environment represented by low quality institutions, politica

Abstract:

Network approach is more appropriate measure to describe the early internationalization of born global firms. The focus of our research is to investigate the origin, structure and role of social networks in the early internationalization of born global firms. We intend to investigate the structure of networks which is considered pre-requisite to study the other dimensions of network ties. Many researchers directly jump to study the role networks play without paying any attention from where these ties originate. Furthermore, much of the literature has connected the born global firms with high t

Abstract:

Audit quality is a widely researched topic but remains a complex concept that is difficult to quantify, which is why several different proxy measurements have been developed. The earnings quality measurement discretionary accruals has been chosen as the proxy measurement for this study as it captures small variations in audit quality which is important since it allows for analysis of a relatively small sample size. Previous literature has found that for example client size, audit firm size, firm performance and company growth have a significant impact on audit quality. There has also been limi

I here have been very few studies carried out on enhancing CFC (Cross-functional Collaboration) for the product design development. nevertheless there is a clear consensus among researchers that this issue is a critical one in ne product design development. Besides, almost all of the research work, which attempted to encourage CFC in NPD situations, was carried out focused on the cross-functional team which is the most effective organisation type to encourage collaboration between other functional groups, rather than the functional organisation, which is difficult organisation to facilitate co

Abstract:

This PhD research investigates the critical resources and Internet capabilities utilized by firms for leveraging global performance in entrepreneurial firms. Firm resources have been identified as important firm assets, which contribute to the firm's competitive global position. The Internet is a critical resource for a new generation of small and medium sized enterprise (SME) in pursuing international opportunities. By facilitating international business, the Internet has the ability to increase the quality and speed of communications, lower transaction costs, and facilitate the development o
