Purpose This study aims to explore the impact of the adoption of wearable technology products for Indian health insurance firms. It identifies the key dynamic capabilities that health insurance firms should build to manage big data generated by wearable technology so as to attain a competitive advantage. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative exploratory study using in-depth personal interviews with 53 Indian health insurance experts was conducted with a semi-structured questionnaire. The data were coded using holistic and pattern codes and then analyzed using the content analysis technique. The findings were based on the thematic and relational intensity analysis of the codes. Findings An empirical model was established where all the propositions were strongly established except for the moderate relationship between wearable technology adoption and product innovation. The study established the nature of the interaction of variables on technology policy, organizational culture, strategic philosophy, product innovation, knowledge management and customer service quality with wearable technology adoption and also ascertained its influence on firm performance and competitive advantage. Research limitations/implications From a dynamic capabilities perspective, this study deliberates on wearable technology adoption in the health insurance context. It also explicates the relationship between the variables on technology policy, organizational culture, strategic philosophy, product innovation, knowledge management and customer service quality with wearable technology adoption on firm performance. Originality/value This study is one of the first studies to add the context of wearable technology and health insurance to the existing body of knowledge on dynamic capabilities and sustainable competitive advantage for the service sector. It would help existing and prospective players in adopting or setting up appropriate business models.

This study investigates the factors influencing the Chinese manufacturing industry’s innovation and industrial performance utilizing a panel data approach on a sample of Chinese manufacturing enterprises over the period of 2008–2013. The industries were grouped according to related sectors into five groups, a general group was also created which included the whole data sample. The study found that research and development (R&D) expenditure positively influenced the growth of product innovation and industrial performance, but not necessarily knowledge innovation and export performance. Also, expenditure on new product development had a positive impact on both innovation and industrial performance. The growth of patent application was discovered to be influenced by an R&D project and foreign patent license. Finally, the number of enterprises and firm size (i.e. number of employees) contributed positively to the industrial output performance. The findings suggest that industrial R&D and new product development influences the success of product innovation and sales performance. The study recommends that the government should set up policies that will stimulate industrial R&D, while supporting technology transfers from foreign partners. Most importantly, government policies on the development of the industry should be addressed on a sectorial level and not a “one-size-fit-all” type of policy.

This article shares research findings from the healthcare equipment manufacturing industry on how product management teams can enhance their value-based innovation processes. Value-based healthcare (VBHC) has transformed healthcare systems worldwide by shifting their focus towards patient-centred value creation. The VBHC concept has also inspired medical equipment manufacturers that seek to enable healthcare providers to realize their VBHC ambitions. In this article, we focus on the development of hybrid solutions for operating rooms in the context of VBHC. Hybrid operating rooms (HORs) add real-time medical imaging to surgical and interventional treatment of patients. This combination is quite challenging to realize, not just in terms of technology but also organizationally. Adjusting technology to the requirements of multiple clinical stakeholders drives complexity to unprecedented heights. How can product strategists manage this multi-stakeholder complexity? Through in-depth case research, we found that adopting a clear VBHC vision is key for product management teams designing HOR innovations. A VBHC vision allows multiple teams to align and effectively collaborate with the goal of enhancing patient care. In addition, we found that integrating inside-out and outside-in perspectives on product innovation helps medical equipment manufacturers produce VBHC-compatible innovations and foster collaboration between clinicians working in multipurpose rooms such as HORs.
