The design of security voting structure allows the seller to choose between two objectives that are not mutually consistent. However, if the seller wants to maximize his revenue, he should retain some shares to benefit from the future dividends generated by the acquirer. In addition, if he wants to sell his high-tech to the most efficient candidate, he should sell all the shares.展开更多

The analysis of correlation between the outcomes of co-branding and two major categories of co-branding strategy （ingredient branding and symbolic co-branding） are also important. In the paper the results of empirical studies are presented. Recent primary research （2009-2011） was conducted in 50 companies which are present in minimum three countries of Europe and have realized co-branding strategy for three years. Questionnaire surveys were carried out throughout all 120 identified companies. As a result, data from 50 companies were obtained, which amounted to 41.7% of all companies polled. The analysis of findings indicates the different outcomes in case of two major categories of co-branding strategy. The results show the general evaluation of the co-branded projects as well as the possibilities of the internal and external development. The results also emphasize the significance of symbolic character of the co-branding strategy. The recommendations in this study are set forth, of course, with the caveat as to the limitations of the sample. Nonetheless, it is believed that the results of this study will alert companies to the potential outcomes of co-branding taking into account the category of cooperation. This research has resulted in practical contribution. From the substantive stand point, this research has shed light on the outcomes of co-branding. This information can be useful for managers to understand which effects can be expected. From a theoretical and practical standpoint, this research contributes to brand alliances research and has provided a better understanding of outcomes of co-branding and the correlations between the possibilities of internal and external development and chosen category of co-branding strategy. This text may contribute to further research in this area and as a kind of motivator for further discussion on this topic.展开更多
