内容简介:

Appropriability is a core idea in strategy and innovation research. Teece’s (1986) seminal ‘Profiting from innovation’ framework identifies the foundational building blocks that determine appropriability. While this framework has been extensively used to analyze firms’ innovation strategies, what remains understudied is the interplay of these building blocks in affecting the value firms capture from new inventions. We investigate the impact of the interplay of the primary and generative elements of appropriability on the value accrued to firms from their innovations. Using a patent as the unit of analysis, we measure appropriability by the private value of the patent to the firm. In a quasi-experimental setup, we unpack the interrelationship between the tightness of the legal regime, access to co-specialized resources through collaborations, competitive tensions with collaborators, and cumulativeness in influencing the value firms capture from an invention. Our analysis reveals the complementarities and constraints among the building blocks shaping appropriability.

演讲人简介：

I am a doctoral candidate in Strategy and Innovation at Tilburg University in the Netherlands, and I expect to complete my Ph.D. in January 2027. I have successfully passed my pre-defense, and my final ceremonial defense has been scheduled on 27th January, 2027.

My research interest is in innovation strategy, with a focus on firms’ strategies in creating and appropriating value from innovation. I have five projects, including one currently under revise and resubmit at the Strategic Management Journal and another that received the Young Scholar Award from the European Policy for Intellectual Property (EPIP) Association.
