Coordination in innovation‐generating business networks – the case of Finnish Mobile TV development

Paavo Ritala, Pia Hurmelinna‐Laukkanen, Satu Nätti · 2012 · Journal of Business and Industrial Marketing

Summary. This study examines how coordination mechanisms evolve in innovation-generating business networks through a case study of Finnish Mobile TV development. The research finds that successful network coordination combines two distinct approaches: orchestration, which builds vision and social capital in early phases, and management, which coordinates activities closer to commercialization. The findings show how these mechanisms shift as networks develop.
