Analyzing societal and industry networks help to generate innovative technological, operational and managerial knowledge. The management’s implementation of sustainable international market entry strategies necessarily requires a profound understanding of relevant stakeholders of the firm’s environment.
My research is focused on the understanding and interpretation of actor relationships (e.g. suppliers, competitors, customers, service providers and others) which form global industry network configurations. Areas of interest are/accumulated research expertise is available for the following industries:
