We investigate the relative importance of external market knowledge acquisition and internal knowledge generation in new venture innovation. We argue that the effectiveness of externally acquired knowledge is less important in environments that are perceived as highly dynamic. To test our model, we examine 316 new ventures in one singular, high-growth sector. We find that man- agers have different

Windmill structures must withstand very high horizontal loading giving an extremely large overturning moment on the foundation. These structures have very low stability loads in comparison to the overturning loads. The traditional way to solve the construction problem uses a shallow foundation with a massive concrete volume or a piled foundation to resist the extreme overturning moment. This work

Since 2014, declining economic growth and Xi Jinping’s anti-corruption campaign have led to decreasing demand in certain markets for jadeite—the highest valued type of jade in China.

Continuous exertion is one of the most influential factors that are detrimental to self-control, which leads to a state called “ego depletion”. Before 2016, the ego depletion effect had been a hot topic for a long time. After a multi-lab replication that reported a no

They pointed out how Airbnb's short-term rentals in the city lead to gentrification and to local residents being displaced from their homes. As a result, many people become homeless and can not return to the city again. Airbnb is no longer the sharing-econ

A central concept raised by the climate justice movement is climate debt. Here, the claims and warrants of the movement support for climate debt is identified through an argumentation analysis of their central manifestos. It is found that the climate debt claim is understood as primarily restorative, in the sense that the environmental space of the developing countries must be returned, “decolonizA central concept raised by the climate justice movement is climate debt.
