Abstract
This study explores the dynamics between the extremes of open innovation (OI)—from inclusive co-creation to exclusive vertical integration (VI). This analysis addresses the management issues of how Tesla and Porsche manage value capture and value distribution in the e-mobility industry through their contrasting approaches and strategic shifts between OI and VI. It develops a novel theoretical model juxtaposing the OI mode from open to closed with the value chain position from horizontal to vertical. Analyzing Tesla and Porsche’s strategic moves offers a paradigm shift for OI practitioners. Our model can enable enhanced value capture through greater openness and more inclusive value distribution through proactive inside-out strategies in core technology areas. Instead of positioning VI and OI as static polar extremes, a novel combination of VI and OI can realize untapped potential.
本研究探讨了开放式创新(OI)--从包容性共同创造到排他性垂直整合(VI)--两个极端之间的动态。该分析探讨了特斯拉和保时捷如何通过其截然不同的方法以及在开放式创新和纵向一体化之间的战略转变,管理电动汽车行业的价值获取和价值分配。分析建立了一个新颖的理论模型,将从开放到封闭的 OI 模式与从横向到纵向的价值链定位并列起来。分析特斯拉和保时捷的战略举措为开放式创新实践者提供了一种范式转变。我们的模式可以通过更大程度的开放来提高价值获取能力,并通过在核心技术领域采取由内而外的积极战略来实现更具包容性的价值分配。与其将VI和OI定位为静态的两极极端,VI和OI的新颖结合可以实现尚未开发的潜力。
期刊介绍:
California Management Review (CMR) serves as a vital link between academia and management practice, offering leading-edge research with practical applications. Edited at UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business, CMR covers a wide range of management topics, including innovation, strategy, sustainable practices, and human resources. CMR ranks among the top management journals globally, distributing articles through outlets like Harvard Business School Publishing and SAGE Publishing. Focused on bridging academia and practice, CMR ensures that all articles are based on rigorous academic research while providing actionable insights for managers. In addition to regular issues, CMR publishes special issues and sections on relevant topics, often guest-edited by leading faculty. Recent special issues have covered dynamic capabilities, city innovation, big data, and intellectual property management.
