The art of alliance management is an integral part of the practice of business in the twenty-first century. Collaborations between companies provide synergistic ideas and a combined capability that surpasses what each firm can achieve, individually. This handbook comprehensively encompasses the latest research in the expanding fields of strategic alliances and interfirm collaborations, featuring twenty-eight contributions from leading international experts. It will enable the reader to develop skills in negotiating with a prospective partner firm; write alliance agreements that specify the rights, responsibilities, obligations, restraints and safeguards for each partner; govern and manage the relationship, taking into account behavioural and psychological considerations, as well as the power balance over the life of the alliance; and handle termination or dissolution of the agreement when appropriate. It will be an invaluable resource for graduate students and academic researchers in business management, as well as the consultants, executives and lawyers who negotiate, form, and manage alliances.

Strategic alliances have generally been used to refer to relationships that allow an organization to access the strengths and capabilities of other organizations. The strategy behind such an alliance is for each firm in the alliance to draw on the core competencies of the other firm(s) with the goal of facilitating growth and development. In many advanced nations, strategic alliances are subsidized by the public sector in the belief that they advance economic growth. This public/private partnership often involves universities or government agencies as the public partner. This book was originally published as a special issue of Economics of Innovation and New Technology.

Create and capture value, no matter what path you've chosen. How to Create Joint Value Alliances, partnerships, acquisitions, mergers, and joint ventures are no longer the exception in most businesses—they are part of the core strategy. As managers look to external partners for resources and capabilities, they need a practical roadmap to ensure that these relationships will create value for their firm. They must answer questions like these: Which business combinations do we need? How should we govern them? Will their results justify our investments? Benjamin Gomes-Casseres explains how companies create value by “remixing” resources with other companies. Based on decades of consulting and academic research, Remix Strategy shows how three laws shape the success of any business combination: • First Law: The combination must have the potential to create more value than the parties could create on their own. Which elements from each business need to be combined to create joint value? • Second Law: The combination must be designed and managed to realize the joint value. Which partners best fit our strategic goals? How should we manage the integration? • Third Law: The value earned by the parties must motivate them to contribute to the collaboration. How will we share the joint value created? Will the returns shift over time? Supported by examples from a wide range of industries and companies, and filled with practical tools for applying the three laws, this book helps managers design and lead a coherent strategy for creating joint value with outside partners.

This contributed volume book aims at discussing transdisciplinary approaches to address common problems. By working transdisciplinarily, researchers coming from different disciplines can work jointly using a shared conceptual framework bringing together disciplinary-specific theories and concepts. There are numerous barriers that can obstruct effective communication between different cultures, communities, religions and geographies. This book shows that through bringing together different disciplines, researchers not only can surpass these barriers but can effectively produce new venues of thought that can positively affect the development and evolution of research and education. The book discusses new and emerging applications of knowledge produced by transdisciplinary efforts and covers the interplay of many disciplines, including agriculture, economics, mathematics, engineering, industry, information technology, marketing, nanoscience, neuroscience, space exploration, human-animal relationships, among others. Consequently, it also covers the relationship between art and science, as one of the most remarkable transdisciplinary approaches that paves the way for new methods in engineering, design, architecture and many other fields.
