IDC OPINION This study leverages the IDC MarketScape framework to evaluate the leading regional and global telecommunications SPs in Asia/Pacific (AP). The primary focus of this study is to assess SPs' capabilities to meet the telecommunication and ICT needs of various customer segments. IDC identified the top 11 providers by scale and scope of operations in terms of strong regional network presence, suite of managed services offerings in the region, and large base of midsize and large-sized enterprises, multinational corporations (MNCs), and government clients across AP. The evaluation framework consists of a large variety of parameters, such as comprehensiveness of service offerings, datacenter and cloud capabilities, go-to-market strategy, growth strategy, partner ecosystem, and innovation strategy. There are several key differentiators among the telecommunications firms assessed that IDC noted for success in this market and of which buyers should be aware. A Comprehensive Portfolio of Software-Defined Networking and Virtual Network Services As traditional network offerings become table stakes, Communication SPs are increasingly using software-defined networking (SDN) to differentiate themselves. The benefits of SDN in the datacenter are well known; however, the expansion of SDN into disparate and often chaotic access networks has also become prevalent now.

  • Winning Virtuous Strategy Creation by Interlocking Interconnecting Directors in Boards of Directors in firms in Information Century
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive Winning virtuous strategy creation by interlocking interconnecting directors in boards of directors in firms in information century Ledenyov, Dimitri O. and Ledenyov, Viktor O. James Cook University, Townsville, Australia 22 January 2015 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/61681/ MPRA Paper No. 61681, posted 30 Jan 2015 08:38 UTC Winning virtuous strategy creation by interlocking interconnecting directors in boards of directors in firms in information century Dimitri O. Ledenyov and Viktor O. Ledenyov Abstract – The article presents an original research on 1) the information theory of the board of directors and 2) the strategy creation by the interlocking interconnecting directors in the boards of directors in the firms in an information century. We review the possible structures of the board of directors, and show that there are the interlocking directors networks in the boards of directors in a big number of firms. Researching the strategic governance of firms, we highlight a fact that the director makes the information sensing, filtering, processing, resonant absorption, analysis, decision making, hence it can be empirically represented as a digital signal processor with the Harvard or von Neumann director’s mindset architectures. We think that the board of directors can be theoretically represented as the electronically-scanned electronically-steered phased array radar with a certain number of active antenna elements, filters banks, digital signal processors, memory chipsets in agreement with the digital signal processing and business administration sciences. Using the theoretical assumptions, we formulate the Ledenyov theory on the winning virtuous strategies creation by the interlocking interconnecting directors in the boards of directors in the firms.

  • Eurozone Business Ne
    Les Analyses de l’OpesC n°12 Le « patronat européen » Juin 2009 Observatoire politico-économique des structures du Capitalisme CORE BUSINESS NETWORK IN THE EUROZONE François-Xavier Dudouet, Eric Grémont, Antoine Vion Abstract Surprisingly, available elite studies on the EMU have mainly focused on the strategy of political elites in favor of uniting (Fligstein & Mara-Drita 1996 ; Jabko 2006), and Fligstein (2008) recently claimed there is still no real transnational business cohesive circle in Europe. This echoes a long-standing debate on the existence of a transnational capitalist class or transnational business community (Robinson & Harris 2000; Sklair 2001; Morgan 2001; Carroll & Fennema 2002; Carroll & Carson 2003; Kentor & Jang 2004; Carrol & Fennema 2004; Nollert 2005; Kentor & Jang 2006; Carroll & Fennema 2006). In this paper, we seek to clarify the debate for Europe on the basis of an interlocking directorates study. We present a new theoretical framework for the study of transnational interlocking, a new context of reference (stock exchange indices rather than magazine rankings or international business organizations), and an original data-setting method (board composition at the end of the year for 2006 and 2007). From this perspective, three main observations emerge. First, unsurprisingly, national scores of centrality remain much higher than transnational ones—proof of the persistence of the national anchorage of core business elites. Second, the emerging transnational power based on transnational interlocks is based on the strength of weak ties, particularly around financial companies. Third, though the absolute density of transnational interlocks remains the higher on the Franco-German axis, our partial Chi2 test indicates that it is less important than what could be expected, contrarily to Franco-Dutch interlocks, which call for deeper investigations about economic restructuring in the Netherlands.

  • Enabling Interlock Benefits While Preventing Anticompetitive Harm: Toward an Optimal Definition of Competitors Under Section 8 of the Clayton Act
    Enabling Interlock Benefits While Preventing Anticompetitive Harm: Toward an Optimal Definition of Competitors Under Section 8 of the Clayton Act Benjamin M. Gerbert Section 8 of the Clayton Act prohibits directorship and management interlocks between competing corporations. When determining whether corporations are competitors within the meaning of Section 8, the courts have historically applied qualitative criteria rather than quantitative market definition analysis. In the Section 7 merger context, however, the courts have increasingly relied on quantitative analysis and have become more and more skeptical of the accuracy of qualitative analysis. In the context of interlocks, an inaccurate definition of competitors can create problems from both corporate governance and competition policy perspectives. By examining the benefits, costs, and difficulties of implementing quantitative analysis to determine whether interlocking corporationscompete, this paper explores the most realistic ways in which quantitative market definition analysis could be introduced and applied in the Section 8 context. The greater precision that generally accompanies quantitative analysis illustrates that it is theoretically a preferable method for defining competitors under Section 8, but because interlocks involve lower stakes than mergers and because quantitative market definition analysis is costly, quantitative analysis is not a viable option ifconducted comprehensively. "Quick-look" quantitative analysis is a practicalalternative. Intro d uction ......................................................................................................10

  • Interlocking Directorates: an Indirect Threat to Competition in India
    VOL. X NLIU LAW REVIEW ISSUE I INTERLOCKING DIRECTORATES: AN INDIRECT THREAT TO COMPETITION IN INDIA Siddhant Bhasin & Pragya Saraf * Abstract The paper seeks to highlight the issue of interlocked directors within companies in India. They are persons who are on the board of two or more companies or have represented the same investor in two or more competing firms. This practice provides a channel of information as well as decision making which, if coordinated by competing firms can be detrimental to competition and adversely affect consumers’ interest. Currently under Indian law, there is no express bar on interlocked directorates, which limits the ability of competition authorities to tackle such issues head-on. Consequently, heavy reliance becomes extensions of other general principles on a case-to-case basis. In this paper, we look at other jurisdictions for inspiration to help arrive at a legal solution that is suitable to India. A comparison is drawn between the approach of India and the EU and the contrast of both of those approaches with the United States. A number of other developing economies (China, Japan & South Korea) * Students at Jindal Global Law School, Sonipat. 155 SIDDHANT BHASIN & INTERLOCKING DIRECTORATES: AN INDIRECT PRAGYA SARAF THREAT TO COMPETITION IN INDIA which have already dealt with the subject are reviewed to understand the different institutional approaches. Contextualising the responses of competition authorities around the world, with the circumstances in India, a number of recommendations are made, including – the need for legislative intervention, the threshold of prohibition and the requirement of government-regulator collaborations. These steps are important to safeguard the competition environment and fulfil the objective aims of Indian competition law.
