Synopsis

This book takes an innovative approach to studying joint ventures in the information technology sector. By examining these ventures through the lens of diffusion of innovation, the author tests the hypothesis that they spread like technological innovations do, with early adopters influencing later ones. Drawing on data from 1972 to 1988, the book finds that imitation is not a major factor in the formation of joint ventures, suggesting that strategic choice and firm-level discretion play a more significant role. By challenging prevailing theories and offering a fresh perspective, this book contributes to our understanding of the dynamics of joint ventures and the role of environmental uncertainty in shaping their adoption.
