Entrepreneurial Growth

As new and enabling technologies allow for the opening of market and resource opportunities in many industries, the importance of building and developing inter-firm alliances has become a business necessity. Entrepreneurial firms that are able to define their internal core competencies and strategies as well as work side-by-side with complementary partners may be able to exploit many of the opportunities existing in the marketplace. Moreover, those firms able to continuously improve their businesses and competencies as well as their alliance structure will also be at an advantage in meeting the next new opportunity. The purpose of this paper is to examine the value realized from strategic alliances in terms of product/service innovations, future strategic planning, and technology infrastructure advantages. By utilizing strategic alliances, entrepreneurial growth in terms of external capabilities as well as operational effectiveness may be realized.

The Relationship

Strategy scholars have proposed that capacity for managing alliance can be a source of superior performance. This study focuses on the role of this capacity, and investigates how alliance management capability of entrepreneurial firms affects the relationship between a firm’s allying and its performance. Because the capability is inherently unobservable, we take alliance experience and average duration of each alliance as proxy variables for measuring alliance management capability. An analysis of multiple allies of entrepreneurial ventures in Korean photovoltaic industry indicate that capacity for managing varying allies, and alliance type positively moderate the relation between alliance and its innovation outcomes.

The article discusses the place and role of strategic planning in ensuring that Kemerovo Oblast – Kuzbass develops comprehensively. For over thirty years, we have been studying the region with one of the leading national territorial-production centers established in the 20th century, how it emerged and functioned. Studies suggest that without regard to the economies of Russia as a whole and Kuzbass’s neighboring regions in particular, its issues cannot be satisfactorily resolved. At large, when strategic planning followed this assumption, it contributed to how fast and holistically the territory developed. Considering that, in the 21st century, strategy makers diverged from this concept and started to search for new approaches, the region’s economy has slowed down and its living standards have declined sharply. The momentum can be reversed with an active state socio-economic policy. Its previous forms, however, when the state gave preferences to private companies and did not require corresponding growth in standards of living in return, became unacceptable. It is necessary to work out a system of effective solutions and measures with mechanisms for reconciling the interests of the government, business and society within approaches that are adequate to the political and economic reality of today’s world.
