Research Paper Inter-Industry Innovations in Terms of Electric Mobility: Should Firms Take a Look Outside Their Industry?
Inter-industry innovations in terms of electric mobility: Should firms take a look outside their industry? Research Paper Inter-industry innovations in terms of electric mobility: Should firms take a look outside their industry? Stephan von Delft* * University of Münster, Institute of Business Administration at the Department of Chemistry and Pharmacy, Leonardo-Campus 1, 48149 Münster, Germany, [email protected] The beginning electrification of the automotive powertrain is supposed to have a major impact on the automobile value chain - reshaping it significantly and brin- ging up new alliances, business models and knowledge bases. Such a transforma- tion of the value chain might fade boundaries between hitherto distinct knowled- ge bases, technologies, or industries. Over the past decades, the blurring of indus- try boundaries – the phenomenon of industry convergence – has gained attenti- on from researchers and practitioners. The anticipation of a convergence process plays an important role for strategic and innovation management decisions, e.g. for new business development, mergers and acquisitions or strategic partnerships. However, despite the relevance of convergence, it is often challenging for incum- bent firms to (1) foresee such a transformation of their environment, and (2) res- pond strategically to it. Hence, this study presents a tool to anticipate convergen- ce and strategic implications are discussed. 1 Introduction stitute rules of conducting business” (Hacklin et al., 2009, p. 723). Firms facing such a situation, thus Technological change is known as a key driver have to adapt to new knowledge bases and new of economic growth and prosperity (Schumpeter, technologies which do not belong to their former 1947; Abernathy and Utterback, 1978; Kondratieff, core competences or their traditional expertise 1979). -
Japanese Manufacturing Affiliates in Europe and Turkey
06-ORD 70H-002AA 7 Japanese Manufacturing Affiliates in Europe and Turkey - 2005 Survey - September 2006 Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) Preface The survey on “Japanese manufacturing affiliates in Europe and Turkey” has been conducted 22 times since the first survey in 1983*. The latest survey, carried out from January 2006 to February 2006 targeting 16 countries in Western Europe, 8 countries in Central and Eastern Europe, and Turkey, focused on business trends and future prospects in each country, procurement of materials, production, sales, and management problems, effects of EU environmental regulations, etc. The survey revealed that as of the end of 2005 there were a total of 1,008 Japanese manufacturing affiliates operating in the surveyed region --- 818 in Western Europe, 174 in Central and Eastern Europe, and 16 in Turkey. Of this total, 291 affiliates --- 284 in Western Europe, 6 in Central and Eastern Europe, and 1 in Turkey --- also operate R & D or design centers. Also, the number of Japanese affiliates who operate only R & D or design centers in the surveyed region (no manufacturing operations) totaled 129 affiliates --- 125 in Western Europe and 4 in Central and Eastern Europe. In this survey we put emphasis on the effects of EU environmental regulations on Japanese manufacturing affiliates. We would like to express our great appreciation to the affiliates concerned for their kind cooperation, which have enabled us over the years to constantly improve the survey and report on the results. We hope that the affiliates and those who are interested in business development in Europe and/or Turkey will find this report useful. -

21-D-0223 June 7, 2021 Highlights of Major General Chemical Manufacturers’ Financial Results for Fiscal Year Ended March 2021 The following are Japan Credit Rating Agency, Ltd. (JCR)’s perception of the current status and highlights for rating concerning the financial results for the fiscal year ended March 2021 (FY2020) and earnings forecasts for FY2021 of Japan’s 7 general chemical manufacturers: ASAHI KASEI CORPORATION, Showa Denko K.K. (with January-December accounting period), SUMITOMO CHEMICAL COMPANY, LIMITED, TOSOH CORPORATION, Mitsui Chemicals, Inc., Mitsubishi Chemical Holdings Corporation (“Mitsubishi Chemical HD”) and Ube Industries, Ltd. 1. Industry Trend In recent years, business environment of chemical industry has been somewhat severe. Since 2018, trade friction between the U.S. and China has been a negative factor, and in 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic broke out. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant negative impact on social and economic activities around the world. Although uncertainty about the future of economic trend has lessened compared to the time when the pandemic broke out, the containment cannot still be foreseen. With regard to bulk chemicals, average utilization rate of domestic ethylene centers in fiscal 2020 was 93.9% (compared to an average of 94.2% in fiscal 2019), falling below the full utilization level of 95% for the second consecutive year. However, the monthly capacity utilization rate hovered around 90% in the first half of the fiscal year, but began to pick up in the second half, with some months exceeding 95%. In addition to recoveries in consumer activity and demand for downstream products, recent cold wave in the U.S. -
World's First Mass Production of Difficult-To-Form Automotive Body
May 18, 2018 World’s First Mass Production of Difficult-to-Form Automotive Body Structural Parts Using Super High Formability 980MPa Ultra High Tensile Steel - Contributing to Reduction in Body Weight of Nissan’s New Crossover - Company name: Unipres Corporation Representative: Masanobu Yoshizawa, President and Representative Director Securities code: 5949 (Tokyo Stock Exchange, First Section) Contact: Yoshio Ito, Executive Vice President Tel. +81-45-470-8755 Website: https://www.unipres.co.jp/ UNIPRES CORPORATION (Head Office: Yokohama, Kanagawa Pref., Japan; President: Masanobu Yoshizawa; hereinafter “UNIPRES”) has succeeded in the world’s first mass production of difficult-to-form car body structural parts using super high formability 980MPa (megapascal) ultra high tensile strength steel(hereinafter SHF 980MPa steel) and began supplying parts for Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.’s luxury mid-size Crossover launched in the North American market in 2018. Across the automobile industry in recent years, while weight saving of car body has been advanced due to growing demand for reductions in CO2 emissions (improving fuel efficiency) in light of preserving the global environment, higher car body strength is also desired for greater occupant protection in the event of a collision. As a result, automobile manufacturers have accelerated the use of ultra high tensile strength steel that enhances weight saving and collision safety through thickness reduction and greater strength of materials. The SHF 980MPa steel that is used for those parts ordered by Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., this time, is a new material developed by Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corporation, and is applied to front side members, rear side members, and other under-body structural parts that are difficult to form. -
