Abstract:
This thesis examines the value creation process and how companies can capture value that they created. It particularly analyses the opportunities a company has to capture value from an innovation. The ability to monetise innovations is crucial for companies and determines whether they can establish a sustainable business. This thesis first discusses previous research and connects theories to broaden and enhance their applicability. The main part is a case study on Uber, a ride-hailing company. In the case study, the company is thoroughly examined and theories which were discussed before are applied in order to expose how Uber creates and captures value. This thesis further highlights the importance of network effects in a competitive environment within the sharing economy. Although value creation and value capturing has extensively been discussed in prior research, this thesis contributes by applying traditional and recent theories to a rising startup that has received unprecedented funding from its investors. Understanding how Uber pursues its way to the top and how it captures value provides vital implications for other similar startups and helps them in their efforts to succeed. This thesis finds that Uber needs to focus on three aspects. Firstly, it needs to diversify its portfolio and offer more services. Secondly, it needs to develop a system that prevents drivers from using competing apps, which would realise network effects that lower prices and enable faster pickups. Thirdly, it needs to further innovate, especially in the field of autonomous driving.
A presente pesquisa de mestrado analisa o processo de criação de valor pelas empresas e como elas capturam o valor que criam. Mais especificamente, investiga as oportunidades que uma empresa tem de capturar valor por meio de uma inovação. A habilidade de monetizar inovações é crucial para as empresas e determina se elas podem estabelecer negócios duradouros. Primeiramente, são apresentadas pesquisas anteriores e, em seguida, o autor as conecta para expandir e melhorar sua aplicabilidade. A parte principal é o estudo de caso sobre a Uber, uma empresa de tecnologia que oferece carona remunerada. Nele, a empresa é profundamente analisada e as teorias discutidas anteriormente, aplicadas para explicar como a Uber cria e captura valor. Esta tese reforça ainda a importância do efeito de rede no competitivo ambiente da economia compartilhada. Apesar de outras pesquisas já terem discutido extensamente geração e captura de valor, este trabalho contribui para aplicar teorias tradicionais e recentes a uma startup em ascensão, que recebeu aportes sem precedentes de seus investidores. Compreender como a Uber busca estar no topo e como ela captura valor tem impacto vital para ajudar outras startups similares a alcançarem o sucesso. O resultado desta pesquisa mostra que a Uber precisa focar em três aspectos. Em primeiro lugar, deve diversificar seu portfólio, oferecendo mais serviços. Em segundo, precisa desenvolver um sistema para evitar que os motoristas usem aplicativos concorrentes, de modo a alcançar o efeito de rede, que reduz os preços e possibilita buscar os passageiros mais rapidamente. Em terceiro lugar, verificou-se que a empresa necessita inovar, especialmente na área de carros autônomos.

Advances in microfluidics in the last two decade have created a tremendous technological value which is shaping genomics; drug discovery; proteomics; and point-of-care diagnostics. The positive impact has resulted in faster analysis time, increased throughput and reduced cost amongst other important benefits. Yet, the life sciences end-users and the microfluidics players themselves are far from fully capturing the value. Author's own observation based on the experience at a leading genomics research institute, where multiple efforts to implement microfluidics technologies hardly succeeded, supports this fact. The failure to fully capture value has serious implications for the vendors developing microfluidics and the researchers employing these technologies. What are the reasons for this failure? What could be done to increase the value capture? Using well-established management frameworks, such as, s-curve, adopter's distribution model, the thesis studied the nature of value creation and value capture. Survey was used to quantify the impact and the diffusion and adoption of microfluidics technologies, as the respective indicators of value creation and value capture. The data support the insight obtained from the conceptual frameworks that microfluidics is still an immature technology. It also shows that immature technology is the primary reason for lack of full value capture rather than the lack of killer application or niche market - commonly reported reasons in the literature. As an immature technology, microfluidics is thus far still only in the hands of users who are innovators and early adopters - the academic laboratories and the research institutes. The application segments which have seen the most value capture are Genomics and Point-of-care diagnostics. The application segment which has seen the least value capture is Drug discovery. This thesis concludes with the recommendations for short and long term strategies for increasing value capture and accelerating the adoption of microfluidics.

Advanced or smart metering has been a hot topic in the electricity community for several years. Despite the excitement about the technology, few business cases are actually able to justify the investment cost. One reason for the gap between costs and benefits is that major benefits such as avoided investments have long payback times and are difficult to monetize. However, another aspect which is largely overlooked is the value creation through nonelectricity market related business models. These business models range from advertising over customer profiling up to insurance or juridical usage of data gathered from advanced meters. This paper summarizes the finding of a number of studies on the value of smart meter information on electricity market related benefit and gives an overview of non-electricity market related business models. The paper gives quantitative estimates of the value for electricity related activities such as energy efficiency, avoided investment and dynamic pricing. In additional it provides a qualitative analysis of the value and barriers of nonelectricity market business activities. In addition to this the study also gives a short outlook on how this value might be captured and which players are best positioned to capture significant shares of the total created value.

The development of fundamentally new technology requires companies to carefully consider how they intend to profit from the commercialization of their ideas. Because companies pursuing disruptive innovations require new organizational capabilities and are often pushing into new markets with unproven technology, they must become masters in dealing with uncertainty. This thesis attempts to provide a holistic and rigorous process to systematically develop and evaluate options for profiting from the commercialization of disruptive technologies that are currently in the limited application stage of development. This thesis reviews the basic elements of technology commercialization, existing approaches to the value capture phase of technology strategy, the fundamental stages of the product development process, and the role of real options theory in addressing uncertainty. The author's experiences with the hydrogen industry provided further insight into the key difficulties in developing strategic options to capture value from the commercialization of disruptive technology. These difficulties include market and technical uncertainty, the infancy of the value chain, capabilities development, the development and valuation of specific strategic options, and the role of established processes, structure and culture of existing companies. This thesis describes a two part process to addressing these difficulties. The macro level process guides the company's strategy development process by emphasizing emergent strategy, the transition to complementary assets, and a focus on navigating the limited application phase of technology commercialization. The product specific strategy provides a rigorous process for exploring the value chain
(cont.) identifying sources of uncertainty, and developing specific options for capturing value from the disruptive innovation while emphasizing sound product development practices and requirements. This thesis builds upon the author's experiences at ChevronTexaco to illustrate the application of these concepts. In one case study, the product specific process is applied to the development of a stationary engine emissions control device. The application of this process revealed or verified significant product development risks while emphasizing that the target segment of the value chain was unlikely to be highly profitable. In another case study, a real options analysis is performed to examine the value of ChevronTexaco developing a near term limited manufacturing capability that would provide future strategic flexibility. The analysis demonstrated how an internal manufacturing capability might improve the probability of profiting from the commercialization of hydrogen fuel processing technology.

Eni, Sabariah. "Urban regeneration financing and land value capture in Malaysia." Thesis, Ulster University, 2014. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.628539.

Abstract:
Property development is seen as one of the key element in urban regeneration process in halting decline in town and Cities. Moreover, the regeneration policy is viewed as a key driver of economic, physical and social growth. Thus, it is an expansive and pervasive measure to policy making decisions. Post 2007 sets the challenges as Global Financial Crisis (GFC) led to the uncertainty and financial constraint for urban regeneration. However, sustainable economic growth demands considerable investment to finance the development and associated infrastructure. The traditional practice to finance the development is by way of public investment. This places a huge burden on governments in terms of raising sufficient investment. In the face of continuing economic crisis, this study examines alternative funding vehicles to fund urban regeneration projects. One possible alternative financing tool is LVC (LVC). Large public investment in infrastructure can substantially increase the value of land in close proximity to the development. Capturing the value of this benefit through land use policy and alternative financing instruments is increasingly important to urban regeneration projects. This study explores an alternative financing mechanism designed to capture the uplift in land value due to development activity. This study examines the application of "value capture" in terms of its prospect and challenges in Malaysia. This thesis provides the first comprehensive empirical investigation in urban regeneration financing and LVC in Malaysia. The analysis also identifies various LVC mechanisms that are applied around the world and their potential for application in Malaysia. The thesis presents the first substantial Malaysian study that explicitly explains the role of key property players in urban regeneration and LVC. Case studies in Kuala Lumpur and Johor Bahru are utilised to show the need for urban regeneration. A qualitative methodology is adopted to gain quality data from the respondents. Interviews with the stakeholders and end user groups in the property industry demonstrate that there are no proper guidelines hence there is: (1) no urgency to adopt the urban regeneration concept, (2) no awareness or intention in capturing land value, and (3) no real opportunity to capture value. The results demonstrate that there is a minimal degree of acceptance of urban regeneration concepts and applicability of LVC as a funding model in Malaysia. The outcome of this study comprises recommendations for more viable strategies and policies that LVC offers to finance urban regeneration. Firstly, this thesis highlights the opportunities and barriers in implementing LVC. Secondly, to ensure its potential, there will need to be political will and government agencies will need to implement appropriate regeneration strategies and fiscal reforms including guidelines for LVC implementation at federal, state and local government levels.

Contribucion por Valorizacion is a form of value capture similar to Special Assessment, used in Colombia to complement Local revenues for major public infrastructure programs. SA's continued use countrywide and its resulting technical evolution has, despite some shortcomings, made it a value capture practice that is internationally recognized as a noteworthy experience. Participacion en Plusvalias is an instrument recently implemented to capture up to 50% of the increments on land values created by public actions, similar to betterment levies and unearned increment taxes. This newer, more complex form of value capture faces important implementation challenges, which need to be addressed. The purpose of this study is to evaluate both Special Assessment (SA) and Participation in Land Value Increments (PLVI), in order to understand what elements of the process of implementation and consolidation of SA, can inform a strategy to make PLVI a politically sustainable policy instrument. This study explores how local political economy has shaped and influenced the development of these two instruments, highlighting that despite their common conceptual origins, SA and PLVI are significantly different. Acknowledging these differences, the research unpacks the experience in Bogota with SA and sheds light on alternate approaches for PLVI's current managers to address the new instrument's challenging implementation arena. The findings of the study suggest that for PLVI to evolve and consolidate as a policy instrument in Bogota, strategic choices that reframe its management as a long term policy rather than a procedure, must be made. Complementary organizational strategies to enhance efficiency and to influence broader public support are amongst the valuable lessons from the experience with SA that underline the importance of a policy's responsiveness to its implementation arena for its political sustainability. The evolution of PLVI in Bogota is important, because it will strongly influence its debate in the rest of the country. For international scholars and decision makers, the comparative approach to understand the challenges this new chapter of the Colombian experience with value capture faces, can be useful to assess other policy environments; while the analysis of each instrument and its relation to the local political and legislative specificities, can be useful to temper these instrument's understanding.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this study is to explore how AI providers ensure value creation and value capture dimensions when developing AI offerings. This by illustrating activities that builds the dimensions and to increase the understanding on how value creation and value capture interplay. Method – To fulfill its purpose, this study adopted an inductive exploratory single case-study approach, conducted at a market leading telecom provider of AI related services. In total, 23 interviews were held with the case company, and the results were generated by applying a three step process of thematic analysis, where the framework’s phases and its underlying activities were identified. Findings – This study’s findings are presented in a process framework, explicitly illustrating key activities for the value creation and value capture dimensions. The framework further suggests AI providers to design AI offerings by going through three phases, i.e. identifying prerequisites for value creation, connecting value creation with value capture opportunities and designing the value offering. It is also found that AI providers must develop multiple business models, and operate them simultaneously, to operationalize AI successfully. Theoretical and practical implications – This study contributes to the theoretical understanding of AI by identifying activities building the value creation and value capture dimensions. In addition, the process framework can be used by practitioners when developing or refining business model architectures for AI offerings. Limitations and future research – This study is limited by its scope, and future research is recommended to perform extended studies where both providers and its customers are included. In addition, this study’s findings highlights the importance of developing and operating multiple business model to operationalize AI successfully. However, this also induces risks of business model cannibalization, which calls for more research.

Abstract:
The study explored how private firms and their constituents capture value through Public-Private Collaboration (PPC) in South Africa. Partnerships are touted as key enablers of firm innovation and value creation in an increasingly complex global context. Yet, very few studies have provided the evidence base of value creation and capture beyond the ‘feel good’ process considering integrated value for firms. Nor is there clarity on how value can be planned for, operationalised and measured for improved management practice. This study progressed knowledge on practice and evaluation of PPC processes for firms by going beyond traditional linear models that have been found to be deficient in complex contexts. A qualitative case study was explored in the mining sector to provide richer and deeper insights into PPC processes from a firm perspective in its collaboration with government entities. The study provided the evidence base and indicators of value creation and capture for a private firm through a PPC process, exposed generalised assumptions, disaggregated value dimensions, and foregrounded a foundational multi-dimensional model and partnership value framework. The study contributed an integrated strategic value lens and the choices made in aggregation and disaggregation of value constructs in diverse contexts. It demonstrated new combinations of constructs whereby PPC processes created sources of competitive, collaborative and societal advantage for firms through mediated pathways. Contextualised concepts and data gathering of use value, exchange value and transformative value offered the evidence called for on value capture through PPC processes. It revealed the need to disaggregate value dimensions such as intellectual, relational and political value from social value. The role of PPC processes in Balancing Accountability between public and private sectors was suggested as a concept in progressing the field of cross-sector governance. A multi-dimensional model is presented reflecting the iterative and evolving nature of PPC processes and the interaction between value creation and value capture. An extended value indicator framework aims to aid in operationalising the assessment of PPC processes. The study promotes PPC processes as a mechanism to operationalise concepts such as Creating Shared Value (CSV) and respond to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

This thesis utilizes a systems approach to develop a framework to analyze the value creation and value capture potential of technical innovations in the wind energy sector of the electric power industry. Six technical innovations are considered for the analysis, including Grid-Scale Storage, On-Site Manufacturing Systems, Transmission Power Flow Control, Near-Term Forecasting, Long-Term Forecasting and Predictive Maintenance. Several comparative techniques are employed, including Pugh selection, weighted stakeholder occurrence based on stakeholder value networks, and a multi-attribute utility method. The technologies are compared across multiple possible future scenarios and scored based on their value contribution to stakeholders of both the wind power plant as well as the entire electric power system. Of the technical innovations analyzed in this framework, Grid-Scale Storage, On-Site Manufacturing Systems and Predictive Maintenance promise to contribute the greatest value to industry stakeholders and thus are the most likely to improve the competitiveness of the wind industry. A combined application of the multi-attribute utility method with the weighted stakeholder occurrence method based on stakeholder value networks was the most effective in distinguishing value contribution from the technologies. A value creation -- value capture matrix provides a useful method for visualizing value contribution to industry stakeholders and is used to inform commercialization strategy of the selected technologies. In addition, trade plots are utilized for selecting which technologies contribute the highest value across multiple possible future scenarios.

Abstract:
Offentliga investeringar i transportinfrastruktur genererar ofta ökade markvärden. Detta värdesamband kan nyttjas som finansieringskälla för infrastrukturinvesteringar genom att delar av det ökade markvärdet inhämtas till det offentliga genom så kallad värdeåterföring. Möjligheterna till värdeåterföring avgörs av faktorer såsom rådande markägoförhållanden, ansvarsfördelning för planering och genomförande av transportinfrastruktur respektive bebyggelseutveckling liksom utformning av lagstiftning, skatte- och avgiftsinstrument. I detta arbete undersöks möjligheterna till fastighets- och exploateringsrelaterad värdeåterföring i Sverige. Arbetet innehåller en genomgång av relevanta institutionella förhållanden liksom tillgängliga värdeåterföringsmetoder. En fallstudie kring finansieringen av en pendeltågsstation och trafikplats i Vegastaden, Haninge, exemplifierar hur värdeåterföring kan tillämpas under rådande institutionella förhållanden. Fallstudier kring värdeåterföring i London och Hong Kong visar på hur värdeåterföring kan tillämpas under andra institutionella förhållanden. De institutionella förhållandena i Sverige jämförs med London och Hong Kong med hjälp av teorier kring markvärden, klubbar, transaktionskostnader och förhandlingar. En referensmodell kring graden av fragmentisering respektive samlat ansvar i planering respektive genomförande av transportinfrastruktur och bebyggelse tillämpas i syfte att tydliggöra skillnader i institutionella förhållanden. I Sverige är möjligheterna till värdeåterföring starkt knutna till kommunens så kallade planmonopol och därtill hörande värdeåterföringsinstrument. Stat och region/landsting är i hög grad hänvisade till frivilliga avtal respektive offentligt markägande för att direkt kunna tillgodogöra sig värdeåterföring. Planering och genomförande av bebyggelse och transportinfrastruktur är samtidigt fragmenterad i Sverige, med ett flertal offentliga och privata aktörer inblandade. Samverkan och förhandlingsöverenskommelser blir viktiga inslag i planering, finansiering och genomförande. Värdeåterföring i den svenska fallstudien sker genom ad-hoc-artade förhandlingsprocesser. I London ger institutionella förhållanden regionen en starkare roll i planeringen av transportinfrastruktur och bebyggelse än i Sverige, liksom tillgång till särskilda värdeåterföringsinstrument. Planeringen är mindre fragmenterad, men i genomförandet liknar förhållandena de svenska. Värdeåterföring kan ske i mer samlad form genom regionalt samordnade avgifter och skatteuttag. I Hong Kong genomförs samordnade infrastruktur- och bebyggelseprojekt av en samlad aktör med ett brett mandat. Värdeåterföring tillämpas genom internalisering av uppkomna värden till följd av offentligt markinnehav och egen fastighetsutveckling. I Hong Kong tillämpas därmed såväl samlad planering som ett samlat genomförande av transportinfrastruktur och bebyggelse, utifrån institutionella förhållanden som skiljer sig kraftigt från de svenska. Institutionella förändringar i Sverige som skulle kunna minska fragmentiseringen i planeringsfasen skulle kunna vara en stärkt regional planering liksom regionala värdeåterföringsinstrument enligt London-modellen. För att närma sig förhållandena i Hong Kong skulle det krävas betydligt mer långtgående förändringar av institutionella förhållanden rörande planering och genomförande, vilka i grunden skulle kräva starka inskränkningar i den privata äganderätten till mark.
Public investment in transport infrastructure often generates increased land values. This value can be used as a funding source for infrastructure investments by applying methods for value capture. The possibilities for value capture is determined by factors such as land ownership patterns, the organisation of planning and implementation of transport infrastructure and land development, as well as the design of legislation, taxes and charging instruments. This essay explores the possibilities for property relatated value capture in Sweden. The essay includes an overview of relevant institutional arrangements as well as available value capture methods. A case study on the financing of a commuter rail station and traffic junction in Vegastaden, Haninge, exemplifies how value capture can be applied under current institutional arrangements. Case studies on value capture methods in London and Hong Kong show how value feedback can be applied under different institutional arrangements. The institutional conditions in Sweden are compared with those in London and Hong Kong based on theories of land value, club theory, transaction costs and negotiations. A reference model on the degree of fragmentation and assembled responsibility in planning and implementation of transport infrastructure and real estate development is applied in order to clarify the differences in institutional arrangements. In Sweden, the opportunities for value capture are strongly concentrated to the municipality, according to the strong Swedish so called "municipal planning monopoly". The state and regional levels are largely dependent on voluntary agreements or public land ownership to directly benefit from value capture. Further, planning and implementation of real estate development and transport infrastructure is fragmented in Sweden, with a number of involved public and private actors. Collaboration and negotiation are therefore important elements in planning, financing and implementation. Value capture in the Swedish case study is based on ad-hoc-characterized negotiations. In London, institutional arrangements provide the region with a stronger position in the planning of transport infrastructure and real estate development compared to Sweden, as well as access to direct value capture instruments. Planning is less fragmented, but the conditions of implementation are similar to those in Sweden. Value capture by regionally coordinated fees and taxes is possible. In Hong Kong, infrastructure and building projects are often planned and implemented by a single actor based on a broad public mandate. Value capture is practiced by internalization of the generated values as a result of public land holdings and real estate development. The underlying institutional conditions differ significantly from those in Sweden. Institutional changes in Sweden that would reduce fragmentation in the planning phase could consist of a stronger regional planning mandate combined with regional value capture instruments inspired by the London model. In order to approach the situation in Hong Kong, considerably more far-reaching changes to institutional arrangements of planning and implementation would be required, such as strong restrictions on private ownership of land.

Full text
Abstract:
The capability of the organisation in capturing customer value of experience (VoE) has led to continuous social interaction and spawned innovative ways to collaborate and co-create with the customers. This notion of reciprocal engagement is referred to as social co-creation. The co-creation paradigm represents value and is referred to as a function of experience other than the product itself. However, there is a critically needs for the organisation to formulate a 'value capture strategy' through the lens of social co-creation. It is evident that the fundamental question of the causal relationship between social media and co-creation has not been fully explained. The research developed a value capture framework in order to have a clear need to understand the various perceptions of four important conditions, social co-creation, customer engagement, engagement platform and organisation capability on value capture. The theoretical aspect of 'Absorptive Capacity Theory (ACT)' is used to demonstrate the organisational capability in order to recognise, identify, assimilate and implement the VoE in the organisation as part of competitive advantage along with existing of social technologies. In this respect, an original conceptual framework was formulated based on evidence within the current literature where a series of constructs are reported to guide the empirical fieldwork in identifying a 'value capture strategy'. The research adopted a qualitative methodology for the data collection approach which consequently enabled an exploratory and interpretive investigation. This included three pilot studies, twentyeight semi-structured interviews and one validation phase with experienced senior managers involved in co-creation within the technology and services industry who were regarded as valid respondents. The findings addressed external and internal conditions of value capture framework for VoE as a result of the analysis. The external condition focuses on organisation capability in recognising a customer active participation with the engagement platform. The internal condition enables an organisational strategy to assimilate and implement the VoE through co-creation initiatives in capturing the VoE. The research considers the organisation role as an actioner purposes on using a social co-creation for direct communication as part of the organisations practice. 9 The study not only contributes to the knowledge of social co-creation generally, but also extending the needs for the organisation on considering the internal condition for the organisation to identifies the VoE from customer participation. With that regards, the social co-creation engagement works as the interface before extending on cocreation stages which more direct, in-depth conversations with customers internally. The evidence is presented which confirms that a value capture strategy in cocreation is important for organisations stability and enhanced service delivery. By formulating a value capture framework, it creates a much deeper understanding of how each element were related and correlated to reach potential end result for the organisation. The implications of the study are that organisations should carefully consider the role of social media on engaging with the customers and propose to develop an online engagement network with their customers in order to have more direct and effective communication tools. This would allow them to have the right strategy on selecting the right customer to engage, for the right purposes at the right time is far more important from creating a massive communication.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the concepts of value creation, capture and exchange in limiting the liability of newness for nonprofit museums entering the sector. There has been considerable examination of cultural value in relation to museums. However, little is known about how value is created, captured and exchanged for stakeholders in new museums. It is posited that value creation, capture and exchange constitute a value cycle. Through this value cycle management in new museums detects and limits the liability of newness. The ability to detect and limit the liability of newness enables the continuation of the museum. If the liability of newness is not limited, it may mean that a new museum exits the sector or is transformed. The concept of a value cycle is derived from an examination of the nonprofit management literature, aspects of the for-profit management literature and the arts and museum management literature. Value creation is a key concept in the three literature areas. Value creation in this context, is specifically defined as the worth of the physical manifestation of the museum. It resides in the building and the collection, services and programs within the building. It is suggested that this value needs to be transformed and consumed by a range of stakeholders. The transformation of value creation is denoted as value capture. Value capture is the appeal of programs, projects and activities. Value capture includes how well the products and services align with particular stakeholders, how accountable the managers are to stakeholders and how products and services are consumed by stakeholders. The measure of how managers have been able to capture value is in the realm of value exchange. Value exchange is the merit of programs, projects and activities. Value exchange is in the form of revenue raised through sponsorship; continuation of revenue investment by the principal stakeholder, the state; time and money transacted by visitors; and intangible exchange such as leadership and reputation enhancement through collaborations. A Value Cycle Framework of New Entrant Museums is then developed as a working analytical tool to assess how the value cycle operates and how the liability of newness is detected and limited by museum management. x The Value Cycle Framework is used to assess four cases. These case studies include the National Museum of Australia as a purpose built new entrant; the Australian National Maritime Museum as a purpose built new entrant; the Mint as a recycled new entrant; and the Earth Exchange as a refurbished new entrant. Each case is assessed discretely using secondary and primary source material and analysing qualitative data generated from interviews with key stakeholders. The cases are then compared in order to track similarities and differences in relation to value creation, capture and exchange. The research findings suggest that a value cycle is operating in relation to new entrant museums. This value cycle is dynamic and non-sequential. Until value creation is floated for a range of stakeholders it is difficult for managers to know the worth of their content, location or their building. Value creation is a nominal starting point, signifying the arrival of a new entrant in the museum marketplace. However, value capture is the zone that is the most vulnerable and volatile for managers of new museums. Typically in these case studies value capture includes a disruptive episode, such as a review process that indicates the liability of newness. Managers within the museum who can respond and resolve contradictions between museological beliefs and the demands of stakeholders (and in so doing limit the liability of newness) are likely to continue museum operations. Senior executives who find such reconciliation more difficult, jeopardize the future operations of the museum to such an extent that the museums close or are transformed within the museum sector. Through these four case studies a revised Value Cycle Framework is developed as an analytical device. This analytical framework can assist in understanding the processes involved in new entry for museums.

Roper, Zachary Joseph Jackson. "The manifold role of reward value on visual attention." Diss., University of Iowa, 2015. https://ir.uiowa.edu/etd/2005.

Full text
Abstract:
The environment is abundant with visual information. Each moment, this information competes for representation in the brain. From billboards and pop-up ads to smart phones and flat screens, in modern society our attention is constantly drawn from one salient object to the next. Learning how to focus on the objects that are most important for the current task is a major developmental hurdle. Fortunately, rewards help us to learn what is important by providing feedback signals to the brain. Sometimes, in adolescence for example, reward seeking can become the pre-potent response. This can ultimately lead to risky and impulsive behaviors that have devastating consequences. Until recently, little has been known about how rewards operate to influence the focus of attention. In this document, I first demonstrate the robustness of various behavioral paradigms designed to measure reward processing in vision. I found that even mundane rewards, such as images of money, are effective enough to prime the attentional system on the basis of value. Remarkably, this effect extended to images of Monopoly money. This observation suggests that whole classes of visual stimuli, such as food, pornography, commercial logos, corporate brands, or money, each with its own reward salience value, are likely vying for representation in the brain. This work has implications for the growing digital economy as it suggests that novel value systems, such as the digital currency Bitcoin, could eventually become as psychologically relevant as physical currency provided sufficient use and exposure. Likewise, this work has implications for gamification in the industrial setting. Next, I examined the sensitivity of the system to make optimal economic decisions. When faced with an economic choice normative theories of decision-making suggest that the economic actor will choose the response that affords the greatest expected utility. Contrary to this account, I developed a new behavioral paradigm (reward contingent capture) and reveal that the attentional homunculus is a fuzzy mathematician. Specifically, I found that low-level attentional processes conform to the same probability distortions observed in prospect theory. This finding supports a unified value learning mechanism across several domains of cognition and converges with evidence from monkey models. Then, I demonstrate the influence of rewards on high-order search parameters. I found that images of money can implicitly encourage observers to preferentially adopt one of two search strategies – one that values salience versus one that values goals. Together, my results expose two distinct ways in which the very same rewards can affect attentional behavior – by tuning the salience of specific features and by shaping global search mode settings. Lastly, I draw from my empirical results to present a unified model of the manifold role of rewards on visual attention. This model makes clear predictions for clinical applications of rewarded attention paradigms because it incorporates a dimension of complexity upon which learning processes can operate on attention. Thus, future work should acknowledge how individual traits such as developmental trajectory, impulsivity, and risk-seeking factors differentially interact with low- and high-level attentional processes. In sum, this document puts forward the notion that rewards serve a compelling role in visual awareness. The key point however is not that rewards can have an effect on attention but that due to the nature of visual processing, reward signals are likely always tuning attention. In this way we can consider reward salience an attentional currency. This means then that deciding where to attend is a matter of gains and losses.

Full text
Abstract:
The production of iron and steel is responsible for the largest percentage of industrial CO2 emissions. Therefore it is important over the coming years to implement carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology to abate these emissions and contribute to mitigating climate change. There are various CCS solutions available to assist in achieving this. These include amine absorption, adsorption, membranes and cryogenic separation. Amine absorption is the most mature and well-established of these technologies, so this method has been used in HYSYS simulation of CO2 capture from a hypothetical blast furnace. The blast furnace emits 69% of the CO2 generated from an integrated steelworks, although it is not a direct point source due to the circulation of blast furnace gas around the steelworks. Cost estimation of the blast furnace CO2 capture process was carried out using standard textbook methods. It costs $71 to capture a tonne of CO2 from a blast furnace using amine absorption technology under a 'best case scenario'. CO2 capture applied to the HISARNA ironmaking plant was investigated. HISARNA is a breakthrough ironmaking technology which inherently produces lower carbon emissions than the blast furnace. It is fed with pure oxygen and does not require pre-treatment of iron ore and coal. This process generates a flue gas of roughly 65% CO2 as contrasted with about 20% CO2 from blast furnace gas. Amine absorption capture of CO2 from HISARNA flue gas was simulated, but this technology is suboptimal due to similar amine regeneration energy costs to blast furnace capture. The only advantage of amine absorption applied here is the smaller columns due to a high CO2 concentration. Cryogenic separation is a better option for CO2 capture from HISARNA as it is akin to oxyfuel combustion in a power station. Techno-economic appraisal of the one- and two-stage flash processes was carried out. The two-stage flash process yielded better CO2 purity by one percentage point, better recovery by 0.3 percentage points as well as a 3% energy reduction, but is more expensive to build and operate, so the one-stage flash was considered optimal. This had a cost of $47/tonne CO2. The overall economics of CCS as part of Tata's Ijmuiden steelmaking operations has been investigated from a site-wide perspective, accounting for CO2 transport and storage, CO2 utilisation in the form of EOR, steelmaking operating costs and revenues, and carbon pricing. Four different carbon price predictions were studied. Cash flow was derived for six decarbonisation scenarios including 'business as usual' between the years 2020 and 2050 in order to assess the long-term economic feasibility of the different options under carbon price regimes. The higher the carbon price, the sooner Tata Steel should invest in CCS. A carbon price of over $184/t warrants immediate investment in CCS, which significantly higher than today's carbon price. Therefore CCS investment is not economically attractive in the foreseeable future. NPVs of each steelmaking scenario have been calculated. It was found that NPV is more sensitive to the steelmaking OPEX than steel sales price under high carbon price forecast, so Tata Steel should look for ways to reduce operating costs rather than increase the steel price.

Full text
Abstract:
A consensus exists in the body of academic literature that stocks with high BE/ME characteristics outperform stocks with low BE/ME characteristics. Researchers disagree, however, as to the cause of the phenomenon. Two competing theories have emerged. The value premium originates either from the relative riskiness of high BE/ME value and low BE/ME growth stocks or from the persistent irrational pricing of those stocks. Market participants question whether the long lineage of academic research showing the existence of the value premium can actually be applied to their portfolio decision-making. The lack of a pervasive value premium across stock size strata suggests the return phenomenon may result from information asymmetry or trading noise, and not from the pricing of greater risk. The value premium appears to be exclusively available to market participants who can effectively navigate the smallest, most illiquid segment of the stock market. In other words, the value premium does not appear to be available to large institutional investors.

Abstract:
In the South African context, the infrastructure backlog is ever increasing and with limited government funding, the reality is that the gap will most likely never be closed. There are however, numerous value capturing mechanisms applied elsewhere in the world that can help with infrastructure funding, but little or none have been applied in a South African context yet. This report reviews the literature on value capturing, and explores whether or not it can be applied in transport infrastructure additions in South Africa. This report seeks to understand the applicability of the different mechanisms to a case study of the Gautrain project in Gauteng. Secondary data is used to evaluate the effect of the newly constructed stations on adjacent residential property values. This is done by looking at three variables, namely distance to station, analysis year and housing type. The data used in the analysis is validated by means of an ANOVA analysis, which is assessed by the F-test and a consequent Tukey's HSD test. This paper illustrates that value capturing is possible in a South African context. Stations such as Pretoria and Johannesburg indicated a direct correlation between increased property values and infrastructure additions and can therefore act as justification for value creation and consequent value capture. Further studies evaluating other variables should however still be conducted.

Abstract:
Abstract. This thesis explores the concepts of business model, value creation and capture, business ecosystems and their relations to each other. While as the value network consists of linear relationships between actors, business ecosystems encompass relationships that are more diverse and tend to be more value capture-oriented. Business models are competing and collaborating simultaneously in ecosystems, this encourages value co-creation and co-capture. This co-evolution of business models enables and fosters ecosystem ecology. There are numerous actors interacting across the IoT ecosystem forming the complex interdependence and interconnection between and among different stakeholders, hence IoT is chosen as a context to study how ecosystem shapes value creation and value capture from the business model’s perspective. Four propositions are made based on the theoretical review and empirical evidence. 1) In comparison with the traditional value chain, value co-creation and co-capture are more dynamic in ecosystems. 2) In comparison with the traditional value chain, the value can be co-created and co-captured through platform business model in ecosystems. 3) In comparison with the traditional value chain, the value is co-created and co-captured through open innovation in ecosystems. 4) Value creation and capture can be maximized by creating own business ecosystem, yet it requires more resources and therefore lead to higher risks. The research methodology chosen for this thesis is a qualitative approach. Both the tradition of exploratory expert interviews focusing on exploring certain central dimensions and highlighting the expert status of the interviewee, and thematic interviews steered to stress on the flexible structure and open discussion is utilized. New themes are formed after transparent data analysis and reflecting on the theoretical and empirical findings. 1) Combining TVC and ecosystem value chain instead of choosing either or. 2) Platforms allow value co-creation and co-capture, yet a lack of track record of performance indicate higher risks for new platform business. 3) It is critical to managing the degree of openness in the open source business model but it is possible to face the challenge with some tools. 4) Creating one’s own ecosystem does not necessarily lead to maximum value creation or capture, but it certainly involves high risks and requires heavy investments. To answer the research question in short: value capture and value creation are more dynamic in ecosystems. It is not applicable for firms to maximize the creation and capture of value because increased value creation generally goes hand in hand with lower value capture. Value creation and capture are not monotone transformations of one another. Ecosystemic business models such as platform businesses and open innovation businesses enable value co-creation and co-capture. Among others, it is better for startups to find relevant ecosystems and become key players in them for optimizing value creation and capture. As business models other industry players are using affect value creation and capture, one needs to foresee the reaction of other firms when choosing, innovating, or reforming a business model.

Abstract:
Waste-to-energy is currently at the forefront of clean technologies. It consists of the burning of different types of wastes (solid, liquid, gaseous) that provide heat and electricity. With high efficiency levels in energy production (80-90%) and low flue gas emissions, this type of energy production has quickly spread throughout Europe. In addition, laws created by both the EU and national governments have created new agendas regarding landfill and waste disposal.   Problem: We have identified three different problems that currently exist: (1) the lack of academic literature which explores specifically business models within the renewable energy industry and the potential that business models possess in exploiting the opportunity within the market place; (2) which methods are effective within a business model in achieving the value that a firm wishes to create, capture, and deliver; (3) current academic literature does not provide enough understanding of the influences and pressures that stakeholders place upon shaping a firm’s current/potential business model.   Purpose: The purpose of this investigation is to examine the business models used by three different waste-to-energy firms in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden and to identify the methods used to create, capture and deliver value. Moreover, we aim to identify and investigate the stakeholders within the waste-to-energy industry of these three companies with the goal of explaining the influence and pressures they place upon the firm’s business model through the use of institutional theory.

Raytheon produces a diverse range of defense products using a wide range of business systems and tools that are not currently integrated. To achieve the corporate vision of "one company", in 2005, Raytheon began to deploy its SAP enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, called "PRISM", focused on planning, sourcing, manufacturing, and delivery processes. After a few single-site PRISM deployments, in 2009, Raytheon launched its biggest deployment yet, to 7,000 users and two business units in California and Texas. This thesis explores effective governance models and post-deployment governance processes necessary to mitigate the anticipated performance dip and accelerate return on investment (ROI) of the SAP system. The desired governance model for multi-business unit SAP ERP system includes comprehensive representation of stakeholders from business functional areas, information technology (IT) areas, user support groups, and SAP system experts. The governance structure consists of integration points among users, system experts, process owners, management, and corporate leadership team to ensure development of corporate system and solutions to address business unit needs. The governance process involves reviewing change requests, assessing changes needed, and deciding on final resolution. The governance structure and its linkages among different groups facilitate the process by involving the stakeholders with the appropriate knowledge and experience to contribute to decision making. The result is a governance structure capable of making just-in-time decisions to implement the "one-company" vision.

The purpose of this Master’s Thesis is to explore the application of Design Thinking as a valuable resource to any organisation, in this studies case the business model. Furthermore, it seeks to describe how the concept of ‘Design Thinking’ is shaping business models in the context of industrial design. By developing a language for and a description of these intersections and interdisciplinary roles. Consensus regarding the concepts of Design Thinking and the business model still needs development since this emerging area has become more established. An applied contextual research approach inevitably paints a new picture using the concepts and will also develop a language to assist design education, researchers and entrepreneurs in the industrial design praxis. The competitive advantage of any business is now driven even more by the intersection between different fields and disciplines. At this intersection exists the opportunity to understand the relationship between Design Thinking (a methodology that is grounded in industrial design) and the business model (a global concept for the logic of business) to help decision makers develop more sustainable pathways for design entrepreneurship. This research also addresses aspects of the changing role of industrial design and devotes the findings to the creative industries in South Africa. The research was conducted using a qualitative methodology, taking an applied context case study approach. Data were gathered from industry experts and three core cases: Thingking (design-maker consultants), Research Unit (a leather and luxury apparel company) and Nomanini, (provider of mobile solutions in the electronic domain).

Abstract:
New digital distribution and value capture models have emerged on the global music industry scene in the last ten years. These models are highly dependent on a strong underlying communications and broadband internet infrastructure which is largely present in most developed markets. South Africa, however, is a developing country whose broadband infrastructure is still nascent and not as widely available or accessible. Due to the permeation of mobile technology, most broadband internet access is likely to occur through the mobile networks in most developing markets. This stands in stark contrast to developed markets where broadband internet access occurs primarily via fixed line infrastructure with mobile as a secondary option.This research set out to investigate whether digital value distribution and value capture models which succeeded in developed countries would be suitable for the South African music industry given the broadband infrastructure constraints and the different internet access methodologies prevalent in this developing market. This research employed an exploratory research methodology in order to investigate this question and found that a mixture of value distribution and value capture models would address the entire market requirement, with mobile-centric digital distribution models being most suitable for mass market deployment.

Abstract:
South Africa needs additional funds for public infrastructure investment. Value Capture could potentially be implemented as a mechanism to raise additional funding. Value Capture depends on maximising land value. Ownership constraints to land development prevent land value from being maximised. The study uses doctrinal legal research to investigate how the principles found in South African mineral rights legislation overcome ownership constraints to developing mineral rich land to its highest and best use. The study also investigates how these mineral rights principles could be applied to land in general, in order to overcome ownership constraints to development. Within this context the study demonstrates how land might be expropriated for development purposes, and how such expropriation could create opportunities for Value Capture.

Abstract:
Purpose - This research investigated the advantages of using a diagramming tool such as the Functional Analysis System Technique (FAST) model to enhance the effectiveness of capturing and communicating lessons learnt onto future projects. The research looked at current ways of capturing tacit knowledge within a projectized organisation to get a clearer picture and propose alternatives on how the knowledge can be communicated and transferred to novice team members in future. The idea is to capitalise on the graphical nature of the FAST model, presupposing the human mind can comprehend graphical tools better than going through long tedious reports. Design - Focus Group Sessions were conducted using two groups from different business units within a project management and consultancy firm in South Africa. The participants represented the various project stakeholders that comprise a project team. The focus group session consists of a presentation on the background of the study and the FAST process. This served as a brainstorming session and a typical project scenario in capturing and communicating lessons learned was presented to the participants. The first diagram showed the activity log list as found on a project site for a particular lesson learnt process. The second diagram showed the same lesson learnt process presented in a FAST diagram. Afterwards, the participants evaluated the effectiveness of the FAST model to capture and communicate lessons learnt in a project environment. The responses were compiled and findings presented in table format. Findings - The analysis of the data and the responses of the participants proved that the FAST diagram can enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of capturing and communicating lessons learnt. This knowledge transfer initiative provides cost benefits as it improves the project execution and competitive advantage of the organisation. Project execution efficiency is improved by codifying tacit knowledge and avoiding repeating the same mistakes on projects. Practical Implications - Developing a culture of capturing lessons learnt on a project as the execution phase unfolds can be a challenging exercise. Most companies pay less or no attention at all to capturing lessons learnt. However lessons learnt documentation must be supported by a quality control system that is robust and allows easy navigation within a repository. The FAST model empowers project custodians through its dynamic structure to document activities on the project. This ensures the FAST diagram is continuously updated to tie in with the changes on the ground as the project unfolds. Limitations: The results were generated in a controlled environment and require confirmation through longitudinal research of the use of FAST for this purpose in practise on live projects.

Abstract:
Background: Big data analytics has been referred to as a hype the past decade, making manyorganizations adopt data-driven processes to stay competitive in their industries. Many of theorganizations adopting big data analytics use agile methodologies where the most importantoutcome is to maximize business value. Multiple scholars argue that big data analytics lead toincreased business value, however, there is a theoretical gap within the literature about how agileorganizations can capture this business value in a practically relevant way. Purpose: Building on a combined definition that capturing business value means being able todefine-, communicate- and measure it, the purpose of this thesis is to explore how agileorganizations capture business value from big data analytics, as well as find out what aspects ofvalue are relevant when defining it. Method: This study follows an abductive research approach by having a foundation in theorythrough the use of a qualitative research design. A single case study of Nike Inc. was conducted togenerate the primary data for this thesis where nine participants from different domains within theorganization were interviewed and the results were analysed with a thematic content analysis. Findings: The findings indicate that, in order for agile organizations to capture business valuegenerated from big data analytics, they need to (1) define the value through a synthezised valuemap, (2) establish a common language with the help of a business translator and agile methods,and (3), measure the business value before-, during- and after the development by usingindividually idenified KPIs derived from the business value definition.

Abstract:
Ma thèse porte sur les questions liées à la création de valeur et à la capture de valeur dans les écosystèmes d’entreprise. J'explore comment les acteurs à but non lucratif et à but lucratif façonnent ces écosystèmes et leur évolution à travers la conception de relations avec des compléments clés.Le premier chapitre utilise un modèle formel pour étudier comment un acteur à but non lucratif, en interagissant de manière stratégique avec les entreprises, peut faciliter la création de valeur dans les chaînes d'approvisionnement verticales. Le deuxième chapitre étudie les stratégies utilisées par les entreprises pour façonner l'écosystème dans lequel elles se font concurrence et maximiser la capture de valeur. Plus précisément, j’examine la décision des entreprises de rendre leur produit compatible avec de multiples compléments ou de le garder exclusif d’un complément spécifique dans le contexte du marché des médicaments anti-VIH. J'utilise un ensemble de données exclusif sur la consommation de médicaments au niveau individuel, obtenu auprès de l'assurance maladie nationale française, ainsi que des données collectées manuellement sur les essais cliniques de médicaments anti-VIH. Le troisième chapitre jette un pont entre les deux premiers chapitres et explore la manière dont les acteurs à but non lucratif façonnent activement l’écosystème en comparant les essais cliniques sur les médicaments anti-VIH parrainés par des entreprises et par des organismes à but non lucratif.Pour conclure, je cherche à comprendre comment les entreprises peuvent maximiser la création de valeur et la capture de valeur dans les contextes où les produits complémentaires sont importants. Je m'efforce d'inclure les acteurs à but non lucratif en tant que partie intégrante de l'écosystème et de comprendre comment les actions d'acteurs qui ne cherchent pas à maximiser leurs profits affectent les stratégies des acteurs à but lucratif vis-à-vis de leurs compléments
My thesis focuses on issues related to value creation and value capture in business ecosystems. I explore how nonprofit and for-profit actors shape these ecosystems and their evolution through the design of relationships with key complements.The first chapter uses a formal model to study how a nonprofit actor, by strategically interacting with firms, can facilitate value creation in vertical supply chains. The second chapter studies the strategies that firms employ to shape the ecosystem they compete in and maximize value capture. Specifically, I look at firms’ decision regarding whether to make their product compatible with multiple complements or keep them exclusive for a specific complement in the context of anti-HIV drug market. I use a proprietary individual-level dataset on drug consumption obtained from the national French healthcare insurance and hand-collected data on clinical trials of anti-HIV drugs. The third chapter bridges the first two chapters and explores how nonprofit actors actively shape the ecosystem by comparing firm-sponsored and nonprofit-sponsored clinical trials on anti-HIV drugs.To conclude, I seek to understand how firms can maximize value creation and value capture in the contexts where complementary products are important. I strive to include nonprofit actors as an integral part of the ecosystem and understand how the actions of actors who do not seek to maximize profit affect the strategies of for-profit actors towards their complements

Abstract:
Open innovation has been rising in popularity as an alternative to traditional model for organizations to enhance innovation in their products or services. In the past, the innovation processes was time-consuming and costly. It has now become significantly efficient and effective, supported by the advancement of today’s IT such as Internet, Cloud Computing and Big Data. Open innovation has changed the aspect of the innovation source; from closed internal R&D to fully utilization of consumers’ collaboration. Decision to shift towards open innovation strategy has been lying on several areas including motivation, financial direction, and preference of the innovation strategies and business models that fitting the organizational core strategy. This research studied the relation of these areas and its effect; it determined the way IT-organization creates and captures value that were done by opening its product platform. This thesis was conducted to analyze the open innovation approach in an open digital navigation platform, featuring two platforms as case study: Google Maps and OpenStreetMap. The investigation emphasized the utilizing of the open innovation strategy to build its platform where crowdsourcing and open source software as objects highlighted in the research. The data was collected from secondary sources. Research findings suggested that crowdsourcing and open source software strategy are the main strategies of open innovation implemented in IT digital mapping platform to create and capture value. While these strategies have been practiced in both platforms, circumstances (motivation, financial direction, and business strategy) that hovering around the internal aspect of organizations affected the application of those strategies. The implementation results are differ according to preferred business model. The result of this research suggested that a non-profit based organization tends to utilize open innovation to improve the value of their product through consumer collaboration, while a profit based organization adopts open innovation to generate additional pool of revenue through customers’ feedback and input data. The open innovation leads to creation of a new business model as the foundation of innovation.

Abstract:
Background: There is an increasing amount of arguments made that new business models are the solution when companies and industries face radical changes in the environment. To be able to prosper in the long run, organizations must reinvent themselves over and over again. Many authors (e.g. Abernathy & Utterback, 1978; Christensen, 1997; Kim & Mauborgne, 2005; Ries, 2011) claim that big, radical, reconfigurations are needed in order to prosper in the long-term. Theories, concepts and framework have been developed to answer how this reconfiguration should happen within organizations. However, the concepts derived are just parts of the solution, and none take a holistic approach, trying to cover them in a practical framework that could be used by organizations. Aim: The aim of the thesis is to propose a framework that enables organizations to systemize their innovation processes, making them flexible enough to repetitively seize opportunities through business model innovation where new value can be created and captured. The proposed framework aims to enable organizations to start discussing how they should create and capture new value and give them a more pragmatic view on the innovation process. It also aims to act as a starting point for future research. Methodology: The thesis follows March & Smith’s (1995) design science methodology in order to build and evaluate the framework. This is done in three steps; first by building a model from theory. Second, the emergence of business models in three different case companies are compared and investigated qualitatively. Lastly the model and the factors derived from the data are contrasted and a framework is built and evaluated. Findings & Conclusion: The basis of the derived framework proposes for big steps to change, and create and capture new value; analyze the basis of competition in the macro and micro environment, analyze and experiment with different non-customer tiers, experiment with the creation of value and experiment and analyze the capture of the value created. More tangible tools are proposed for each of these steps. Actually testing the framework and further evaluating and theorizing of the framework is proposed as future research directions.

The effects of rail rapid transit on land uses and land values are discussed. Rail transit can enhance accessibility, and can raise the demand for locating in areas around stations, increasing land value, and in some cases fostering redevelopment at higher densities. The attraction that the areas around stations produce depends on the number of trips generated for unit of land for different types of land-uses. A series of studies on the effect of rail transit on land values are reviewed. Using data from censuses and origin-destinations surveys, the effects of metro lines on land-uses during the 1990's in Mexico City and Santiago de Chile are determined. Results show that in Mexico City neither zones located next to the new lines, nor zones located next to the lines built before 1990 had a higher growth of population, income per capita or employment, as compared to other zones with similar densities and incomes per capita. In the case of Santiago, whereas the areas located next to the newly built line had similar changes to other zones, the areas located next to the two lines built before the 1990's had a significantly higher growth in number of households and average income per capita than other areas, especially in high-income districts. These results are explained by the lower attractiveness of the metro for middle and high-income people in Mexico City as compared to Santiago de Chile, which is proven by specifying relations between ridership and GDP for both cities, using multiple regression models.
(cont.) The potential of land value capture as a mechanism for funding rail transit in both cities is discussed, based on the experience of other rail transit systems around the world, and on the characteristics of both metros. In both cases a land value capture system is proposed for new lines. Some guidelines for the implementation of land value capture mechanisms are provided.

The fintech sector has experienced intense interest from financial industry participants as the number of fintech start-ups has proliferated and robust growth statistics have prompted financial sector incumbents to respond with their own investments in the sector. As a result of the rapid increase in competition, innovators who have created value have found challenges to capture and deliver this value to end users with sustainable business models. This thesis presents the results of a study of the leading fintech firms using the lens of a value capture and value delivery framework. The framework reveals not only how these firms have successfully navigated through this challenging landscape, but also how they need to be aware of the evolving competitive dynamics over time. The insights presented have implications for potential entrants that seek to launch a consumer focused fintech firm. In particular, a review of the experiences of the most prominent fintech firms reveals how they have used technology to uncover under-served markets and have sought to differentiate themselves and extend their initial advantage by scaling and through strategic partnerships with incumbents.

Abstract:
Suppliers of the next generation mobile network, 5G, promises increased performance which can ensure smart manufacturing. Smart manufacturing entails systems of wireless and connected sensors, robots and other devices that together are optimizing the manufacturing process with data. At the same time, 5G has become one of the major technological trends in manufacturing. Globally, efforts are being made to optimize assembly lines through smart manufacturing, but there is no evidence of 5G's promised performance in practice. This study addresses how an industrial company that offers smart tools should capture the value of 5G in the business model. This is done by examining if and what unique features 5G is providing, whether customers are ready for this technology and how 5G will affect the business model. The study is based on a case study at Atlas Copco AB, a Swedish industrial company that operates on a global scale. The collaboration was made with Atlas Copco's business area within Industrial Technique and with the divisions General Industry and Motor Vehicle Industry. Data was collected through interviews both internally at Atlas Copco and externally with their customers and were then combined with a literature study. The findings from this study can be summarized as follows: • 5G enables connectivity that is required for smart manufacturing processes.• Customers are in different phases of 5G adoption.• There is a difference in what characteristics customers value, and therefore 5G will not provide the same value for all customers.• The business model will need to be changed to a more service-oriented model when offering 5G, to be able to fully capture the value of 5G. At the end of the study, a summary is given of the study's conceptual and empirical contributions, as well as suggestions for future work.
Leverantörer av nästa generations mobilnät, 5G, utlovar ökad prestanda som kan garantera smart manufacturing. Smart manufacturing innebär system av trådlösa och anslutna sensorer, robotar och andra enheter som tillsammans optimerar tillverkningsprocessen med hjälp av data. Samtidigt har 5G blivit en av de stora teknologiska trenderna inom tillverkning. Globalt görs ansträngningar för att optimera monteringslinor genom smart manufacturing, men det finns ännu inga bevis för 5G:s utlovade prestanda i praktiken. Denna studie behandlar hur ett industriföretag som erbjuder smarta verktyg ska fånga värdet av 5G i affärsmodellen. Detta görs genom att undersöka om och i sådant fall vilka unika funktioner 5G tillhandahåller, om kunderna är redo för denna teknik och hur 5G kommer att påverka affärsmodellen. Studien grundar sig i en fallstudie på Atlas Copco AB, ett svenskt industriföretag med global närvaro. Studien gjordes i samarbete med Atlas Copcos affärsområde för Industriteknik, inom divisionerna för General Industry och Motor Vehicle Industry. Data samlades in genom intervjuer, både internt på Atlas Copco och externt med deras kunder och kombinerades sedan med en litteraturstudie. Resultaten från denna studie kan sammanfattas enligt följande: • 5G möjliggör anslutning som krävs för processer som är kopplade till smarta manufacturing.• Kunderna är i olika faser av 5G-adoptionen.• Det finns en skillnad i vilka egenskaper kunderna värderar och därför kommer 5G inte att ge samma värde till alla kunder. • Affärsmodellen måste sannolikt ändras till en mer serviceinriktad modell när man erbjuder 5G för att fullt ut kunna fånga värdet av 5G. I slutet av studien ges en sammanfattning av studiens konceptuella och empiriska bidrag samt förslag på framtida arbete.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis focuses on the information processing in individuals with high levels of psychopathic traits. Part 1 reviews the research literature that has investigated whether individuals with psychopathy, or high levels of psychopathic traits, show deficits in the processing of punishment and/or reward information, and the extent to which the reported studies provide support for the two current competing theories of psychopathy. The review demonstrates that whilst there is strong evidence for intact processing of reward information, there is less conclusive evidence of a deficit in punishment processing. Furthermore, the literature reviewed was more supportive of an emotional dysfunction account of psychopathy, relative to an attention-based account. Part 2 presents an experimental study that investigates whether emotional face training is able to modify attentional capture by fearful faces in a community-based sample of individuals with high levels of psychopathic traits. The results showed that those who received the training were more captured by a task-irrelevant fearful face, and that this was the case, regardless of level of psychopathic traits. Part 3 considers some of the methodological and conceptual issues that arose while conducting the study reported in Part 2. Due to the specific nature of the research question, several decisions concerning the design and statistical analysis of the data needed to be made. This section discusses the advantages and disadvantages of those particular decisions.

Full text
Abstract:
The capture of value from property development processes is a challenge for many planning systems. In the UK there is a long history of using value capture mechanisms; most recently in the name of ‘supporting growth’ and to secure funding for infrastructure. This research examines the latest English policy on value capture, the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL), a type of “impact fee”, to study policy-making in this area. The planning system, and the CIL policy, are conceptualised here as a series of arenas where different knowledges engage with each other. Three main arenas are identified: assessments of the value generated by the development process; the distribution of the value between the actors involved in the development process, including the capture of a share by the state to fund infrastructure provision; and, the decision on how funding is spent. Using an interpretive policy analysis approach influenced greatly by Hajer across two case studies, the research reveals that the underpinning economic viability assessment process is problematic, with specialist knowledge claims having a distinctive performative impact on the outcome of the policy making process. The viability assessment then provides a frame within which other policy debates are enacted and this influences planning practice in new and particular ways. This analysis demonstrates the extent of the institutionalisation of an economic growth discourse within the English planning system. This finding contrasts with previous periods in which value capture had underpinning social rationales. Finally, the implications of this Institutionalisation are that the transparency of the decision making process is obscured by the use of technical and specialist knowledge by key actors, especially in relation to the viability assessment. This governance effect of the viability assessment frames the policy priorities and the tactical activities of local authorities in policy making in this area.

This thesis studies the problem of data link in the NAT under a technology transition framework of value creation, capture, and delivery. Creating value through a new technology, such as data link, refers to designing competitive value propositions for stakeholders. Capturing value means recovering an investment in a technology through the value it creates. Delivering value refers to developing policies and business strategies to enable value capture. Realization of these concepts is necessary to guarantee technology transition. Data was gathered from a survey of the two major stakeholder groups in the NAT, commercial operators and ANSPs. The survey covered five major research areas: 1) Perceived operational and coordination inefficiencies; 2) Opportunities to improve service; 3) Current and projected data link equipage and infrastructure in the NAT; 4) Value distribution of data link costs and benefits; and 5) Potential policy strategies to encourage data link adoption. The study found that data link creates value for stakeholders through an understanding of the evolution of technology and stakeholder needs. Fuel penalties associated with flying suboptimal flight levels and routes is the largest inefficiency in the NAT. Data link, particularly through the FANS system, is seen as the enabling technology to improve efficiency of operations. Reducing separation is the data link application most valued by stakeholders.
(cont.) Coordination and harmonization issues threaten to limit the value created. Data link diffusion (airborne equipage and ground infrastructure) is not always guaranteed as a result of value created due to improvements in technical performance. Value capture is limited due to unbalances in the distribution of data link costs and benefits. So far, data link operational benefits have been significant but have not yet translated into economic benefits given that such applications have not been implemented in the NAT. Delivering value from data link is more than balancing costs and benefits. Uncertainty in a number of issues needs resolution before the value created through data link could be fully captured and delivered. A combination of operational, financial and regulatory schemes may be necessary to leverage costs and benefits and ensure successful data link value delivery to all stakeholders.

Abstract:
Many entrepreneurs pursue the IT-industry, which is characterized by opportunities and international growth. However, due to failures in sales, marketing and operations, many IT-startups never reach profitability and sustainable performance.  On behalf of the IT-startup Realbridge, the authors have been asked to investigate how their sales process can be made more efficient. By identifying elements in the sales process, the authors can provide suggestions supported by theories and qualitative data on how Realbridge and similar companies can redesign and improve their sales process. The study further investigates the role of sales in the business model and how a changed sales process impact value delivery and innovate the business model. Consequently, the thesis aims to answer the following research questions: How does a firm’s sales process impact value delivery in the business model? How can small IT-companies similar to Realbridge and their product improve their sales process efficiency? This degree project has several purposes. Firstly, it aims to further investigate the role of sales in value delivery in the business model. This will extend knowledge and research on value delivery and sales, and will further investigate the relationship between components of the business model. Secondly, it will serve as a guide for managers in IT-firms on how they can improve the sales process. Thirdly, it will create an understanding of how IT-firms similar to Realbridge can develop or innovate their business model in terms of changed value delivery, key activities and sales process. As the aim of this study is to extend knowledge in the business model and sales literature, as well as analyze Realbridge’s sales process and culminate in recommendations on how IT-startups can increase their sales efficiency, this degree project takes form as a qualitative case study. Interviews have been conducted with interviewees in four different organizations with three different perspectives: Realbridge’s perspective, customer in the car dealership industry’s perspective and non-customer in the car dealership industry’s perspective. The data has been processed in accordance to thematic analysis. The analysis has led the authors to the conclusion that a changed sales process impact value delivery and consequently innovate the business model. It is also found that the sales process impact value creation and capture. Moreover, in order to effectively design a sales process, Realbridge and similar companies must effectively segment the market, focus on fewer segments initially and target them according to their expected financial contribution. They should state and communicate a specific value proposition related to the approached segment’s main needs. Furthermore, customer preferences have to be accounted for in terms of sales channels and type of relationships, and it can be seen as a financial risk to maximize value creation and value delivery for all customers.
