There have been a lot of studies related to determinant factors of IJV performance. However, there are very few studies focusing on the measurement of I Jr performance. Especially, researchers have ignored how foreign parent firms really choose their measures in the evaluation of their IJV performance. This research investigates determinant factors of performance measures of 1JVs. Determinant factors of IJV performance measures include motives for establishment, establishment mode, location of IJVs, distribution of ownership in IJVs, cultural background of parent firms, and trust between partners, IJV life stages, parent firms' international experience, and relatedness of the IJVs to their parents. Performance measures are divided into financial measures and non-financial measures. The paper shows how different determinant factors are expected to lead foreign parent firms preferring one kind of measure over the other.展开更多

Financial and marketing section chiefs or employees of higher levels at Taiwan listed biotechnology companies were interviewed, with the companies' ROE (return on equity) data obtained from the Taiwan Economic Journal (TEJ) database. While convenience sampling was used to yield knowledge from the population, the linear Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was adopted to verify the goodness-of-fit effects among the overall model, structural model, and measurement model. Findings from this study show that, at Taiwan listed biotechnology companies, IC accumulation and increased brand equity have significantly interactive influences on organizational performance.展开更多
