Innovation through alliances: Archimedes' hall of mirrors

Author

  • Cummings, Thomas

Abstract

In this article, Thomas Cummings reviews the basic assumptions underlying the recent trend to new technology partnerships and suggests that managers in such partnerships need to be skilful in managing the collaboration. Both the uncertainty in the innovation process and the integration of partner capabilities are necessary if the joint R&D project is to really succeed.
