Strategic Investment Decisions in Regulated Markets
Most network industries throughout Europe are subject to sector-specific regulation with large impact on market structures and results. Consequently, questions related to regulatory designs and their effects on market outcomes become more and more important in business and politics as well as in scholarly research. Concentrating on Germany and the UK, Christian Wernick provides the reader with insights on the effects of different regulatory strategies, which take place under a common European regulatory framework. Combining theoretical analyses and empirical material a sophisticated and balanced picture on the coherences between regulation and investment behaviour in Germany’s and the UK’s broadband markets is presented.
Conflict, Culture, and Management - Antecedents of Performance in Virtual Teams
The use of virtual work teams in organizations is becoming common practice around the world. This change is predominantly the result of changes in the competitive situation, the innovation potential of information and communication technology (ICT), as well as changes in the values of the society. The boundaries of companies fade, hierarchies dissolve, cooperation between companies increases, and electronic markets, business webs, open source cooperation, as well as virtual organizations and teams evolve. Julia Gallenkamp integrates research on virtual teams, team processes and organizational processes, as well as cultural aspects of groups and individuals in a virtual context. The work sheds light on different facets of work-related factors that influence the effectiveness of these geographically distributed teams.

Three empirical studies cover topics related to the three phases in the entrepreneurial process - opportunity recognition, evaluation, and exploitation
Interdependencies in the Discovery and Adoption of Facebook Applications
Facebook Platform is a prominent example of an internet-based service for which third-party developers can offer small add-on programs, which are often referred to as applications. The distribution of success of applications is highly skewed. This market structure with few blockbuster applications and a long-tail of unpopular ones is common in the media, entertainment and software industries. Philip Mayrhofer compiled individual-level survey data as well as an original panel data set of Facebook applications in order to examine the market for Facebook applications in detail. Specifically he identifies interdependencies such as bandwagon effects between users and spillovers between applications and analyzes whether they contribute to the concentrated market structure.
