  • Philadelphia in an Age of Change, 1785-1800 By
    Specialized residential and business districts : Philadelphia in an age of change, 1785-1800 by Thomas Samuel Gentry A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Montana State University © Copyright by Thomas Samuel Gentry (1988) Abstract: Philadelphia in 1785 was a city on the brink of economic expansion. The carrying trade promoted the financial growth of the city. Even though Philadelphia became a trading center in the 1790s, the economic boom affected only a very small segment of society. Examining local records such as the city tax lists, city directories, newspaper accounts, and the Federal Direct Tax of 1798, one realizes that while the economy flourished, for many people the 1790s were an age of poverty. The carrying trade helped those in a position to benefit from trade with England, France, and the West Indies; however, due to the rapid growth in population, lower income Philadelphians were left out of this trading circle. While many merchants prospered their working class counterparts fell into poverty. Artisans and craftspeople found that their piece of the monetary pie was becoming smaller and smaller throughout the period. As the 1790s progressed the wage of artisans, laborers, and craftspeople dropped considerably. The drop in the wage is directly reflected in the city tax lists for the 1780s and 1790s. Workers found it harder to make ends meet. Changes in property values in the 1790s aggravated the problems of the workers, forcing them to move to more affordable accommodations in different parts of Philadelphia. Places like North Mulberry and South Ward became havens for workers in the 1790s, as businesses devoted to the carrying trade moved into the buildings along the Delaware River.

Si partirà con delle breve esposizioni della loro storia, i pe- riodi di crescita più significativi e l’analisi dei titoli chiave del loro successo degli ultimi dieci anni dal 2011 al 2019; le so- cietà prese sono la EA Sports o Electronic Arts Inc., la Ubisoft Entertainment SA e la Nintendo Co. Ltd. Su ognuna di esse verrà analizzata, tramite la lettura dei loro documenti di bilancio, la loro evoluzione anche collegando a questi dati numerici le informazioni relativi all’immissione dei prodotti chiave nel mercato e le loro conseguenze nei pe- riodi successivi. Una volta esposte tutte le imprese, ci prodigheremo alla for- mulazione di ipotesi sul loro futuro. 3 DESCRIZIONE DEL MERCATO L’incredibile successo di questo mercato dell’intrattenimento è frutto di un continuo sviluppo tecnologico iniziato in America a partire dalla fine degli anni ’40 ma arrivando alla prima di- stribuzione globale di prodotti videoludici solo nel 1961. Fu tuttavia a metà degli anni ’60 (1966) che fu introdotto uno degli strumenti principali del successo videoludico nonché elemento chiave per molte imprese neo-entranti, l’introduzio- ne della prima console. Dall’introduzione di quel primo modello, molte altre imprese hanno tentato di ottenere il controllo del mercato delle console e a oggi solo tre imprese detengono il controllo: la Sony, con la PlayStation; la Microsoft con l’XboX e infine la Nintendo con i suoi GameBoy, Wii e più recentemente Nintendo Switch (tra l’altro la EA e Ubisoft distribuiscono i loro prodotti console pro- prio su PlayStation e XboX e Switch).

  • UBISOFT Creator of Worlds: How Signiant Helps Power Ubisoft’S Global Game Development
    CASE STUDY UBISOFT Creator of Worlds: How Signiant helps power Ubisoft’s global game development Ubisoft is well-known as a global leader in video-game production and publishing. For the millions who play games like Assassin’s Creed, Just Dance, Tom Clancy’s series, Rayman, Far Cry and Watch Dogs, Ubisoft creates worlds that are intensely engaging, fun and meaningful. But developing such immersive experiences and staying relevant in the increasingly competitive gaming market requires an equally intense production and delivery process. Founded more than 30 years ago in France, Ubisoft has the largest in-house game development staff in the world, with more than 15,000 team members from 95 nationalities spread across over 40 global studios. +1 781.221.4051 | WWW.SIGNIANT.COM More consoles, larger files, and long distances heighten pressure on game-development pipelines Today’s game development pipeline is far more complex than it was even five years ago. An increasing number of consoles from companies like Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo require multiple versions of each game to be created and tested. And emerging display standards like 4K, HDR and VR mean managing enormous file sizes. “When we produce a game, it typically involves hundreds of people, programmers, artists, game designers and testers, from multiple studios around the world working on the same game, including a lead studio and several co-development studios,” says Li Xiao Song, Ubisoft Service Manager. Everyone working on a game needs to receive each new version, so they can run it, see what has been done and test it.

  • Disruptive Innovation and Internationalization Strategies: the Case of the Videogame Industry Par Shoma Patnaik
    HEC MONTRÉAL Disruptive Innovation and Internationalization Strategies: The Case of the Videogame Industry par Shoma Patnaik Sciences de la gestion (Option International Business) Mémoire présenté en vue de l’obtention du grade de maîtrise ès sciences en gestion (M. Sc.) Décembre 2017 © Shoma Patnaik, 2017 Résumé Ce mémoire a pour objectif une analyse des deux tendances très pertinentes dans le milieu du commerce d'aujourd'hui – l'innovation de rupture et l'internationalisation. L'innovation de rupture (en anglais, « disruptive innovation ») est particulièrement devenue un mot à la mode. Cependant, cela n'est pas assez étudié dans la recherche académique, surtout dans le contexte des affaires internationales. De plus, la théorie de l'innovation de rupture est fréquemment incomprise et mal-appliquée. Ce mémoire vise donc à combler ces lacunes, non seulement en examinant en détail la théorie de l'innovation de rupture, ses antécédents théoriques et ses liens avec l'internationalisation, mais en outre, en situant l'étude dans l'industrie des jeux vidéo, il découvre de nouvelles tendances industrielles et pratiques en examinant le mouvement ascendant des jeux mobiles et jeux en lignes. Le mémoire commence par un dessein des liens entre l'innovation de rupture et l'internationalisation, sur le fondement que la recherche de nouveaux débouchés est un élément critique dans la théorie de l'innovation de rupture. En formulant des propositions tirées de la littérature académique, je postule que les entreprises « disruptives » auront une vitesse d'internationalisation plus élevée que celle des entreprises traditionnelles. De plus, elles auront plus de facilité à franchir l'obstacle de la distance entre des marchés et pénétreront dans des domaines inconnus et inexploités.
