摘要:

新环境下,非对称联盟对企业成功越来越重要。基于2009—2013年我国深市股权式联盟公告数据,研究了制造业行业中伙伴年龄非对称性对联盟价值的影响。研究发现,伙伴年龄差距对联盟价值的影响对于不同年龄、规模和研发能力的企业不同。研究结论表明,对于成熟企业来说,年龄非对称的伙伴的价值更高,但随着企业规模和研发能力的提高,年龄非对称伙伴的联盟价值逐渐降低。对于新生企业来说,年龄对称的伙伴是更好的选择,特别是当新生企业的规模和研发能力较强时,同龄伙伴的价值最高。本文深化了联盟伙伴选择的相关研究,揭示了联盟价值创造的边界条件,即企业特征如何影响伙伴年龄差距与联盟价值创造之间的关系。

Abstract:

Asymmetric alliance is becoming more and more significant for a firm's success in the new environment. Based on data of equity alliances formed by firms listed on Shenzhen exchange market from 2009 to 2013, we investigate the impact of partner age asymmetry on alliance value for firms in the manufacturing industry. We find that the impact of partner age asymmetry on alliance value is moderated by the firm's age, size and R&D capability. Results show that asymmetric age partners are more valuable than symmetric ones for old firms, but the value created in asymmetric alliances decreases when a firm is big in size or high in R&D capability. On the contrary, partners of similar ages are better choices for young firms, and the alliance value of cooperating with a symmetric age partner increases with the young firm's size and R&D capability. This paper contributes to research on partner selection. It explores the boundary conditions for value creation by strategic alliances, which illustrates the contingent effect of a firm's attributes in the relationship between its partners' age asymmetry and the firm's value extracted from strategic alliances.
