  • STRATEGIC RATIONALE Should a Firm Build a Strategic Alliance?
    01-Schaan.qxd 8/14/2006 6:03 PM Page 1 1 STRATEGIC RATIONALE Should a Firm Build a Strategic Alliance? In Brief Today’s business environment has changed. Amid rapid and dramatic change heavily driven by globalization, increased business complexity, diversified customer needs—and simply speed—companies need to respond and adapt accordingly if they are going to survive and grow. Alliances serve as an important business strategy to respond to the business environ- ment, and they increasingly define the structure of entire industries, as is the case in the multimedia, telecommunications, automobile, and biotechnology industries. And they work. Companies that successfully embrace alliance strategies consistently perform better than those that do not. These companies benefit from alliances in a variety of ways, including sharing cost and risk, pooling their respective strengths, and leveraging complementarities. How much importance and stake is placed in forming an alliance should be directly proportionate to the degree to which the alliance supports a company’s overrid- ing business strategy. Simply stated, if it is going to be instrumental in achieving its long-term business objectives, the company managers will want to put into it suitable time and resource commitment to ensure its success. In contrast, if it is not as strategically important, prudence needs to be exercised in making a commitment. Deciding to commit is only part of the readiness question. It is essential to take a close look at the internal structure, policy, and culture of the organization to make sure the internal machinery is indeed setting the company up for success.

  • The Big Fish Ten Years Later, the Story of Suck.Com, the first Great Website by Matt Sharkey
    Keep Going | http://www.keepgoing.org/issue20_giant/the_big_fish.html The Big Fish Ten years later, the story of Suck.com, the first great website By Matt Sharkey n August , HotWired, the online publishing division of Wired magazine, was just I months old, making it, by the accelerated pace of the early web, both a pioneer and a latecomer. Prior to the HotWired launch in October , Wired had an Internet presence, via Gopher, a text storage and retrieval system, and an email delivery mechanism, which pro- cessed requests for specific magazine articles. These systems were handled by a small cadre of engineers, who, with the burgeoning popularity of a new method of online publishing, the World Wide Web, and the release of the first graphical browsers, helped convince founder and publisher Louis Rossetto that Wired needed to get on the web. Rossetto was a leading evangelist for digital culture, but he was also a businessman, and while he envisioned the prominent role that the San Francisco-based monthly might take in the new web space, he first had to be sold on the profitability of such a venture. The obvious and popular solution was to sell advertising, but this being the web—and this being Wired—it would be a completely new breed of advertising. At first glance, it re- sembled the print model, with a rectangular plot of screen real estate rented to sponsors for, initially, , a month—, more than the magazine charged for a full-page ad. But unlike print, HotWired’s advertisements would be linked to the sponsor’s own web page.
