Balancing Exploration and Exploitation in Alliance Formation
Do firms balance exploration and exploitation in their alliance formation decisions and, if so, why and how? We argue that absorptive capacity and organizational inertia impose conflicting pressures for exploration and exploitation with respect to the value chain function of alliances, the attributes of partners, and partners’ network positions. Although path dependencies reinforce either explo...
متن کاملExplorative and exploitative learning strategies in technology-based alliance networks
This paper aims to improve our understanding of how exploitative and explorative learning of firms is enhanced through their social capital. Both types of learning differ considerably from each other and we argue that the distinction between them may be an important contingency factor in explaining the value of direct, indirect and (non-)redundant technology-based alliances. In particular we ar...

In particular, this capability deems essential under a fast growing economy, such as China. However, it is still unclear as to how and why specific information technology (IT) investment...
متن کاملGroup-Level Exploration and Exploitation
Organisational research has studied the tension between exploration and exploitation for years. In essence, this body of research agrees on the necessity of a balance between explorative and exploitative processes to prevent an organisation from falling into a learning trap. Thus, to enhance the active management of this balance in organisations, a deeper theoretical understanding of the factor...
متن کاملOn Evolutionary Exploration and Exploitation
Exploration and exploitation are the two cornerstones of problem solving by search. The common opinion about evolutionary algorithms is that they explore the search space by the (genetic) search operators, while exploitation is done by selection. This opinion is, however, questionable. In this paper we give a survey of diierent operators, review existing viewpoints on exploration and exploitati...
