Business Model Innovation in China's Semiconductor Industry:A Pathway to Technological Breakthrough

In the face of intense global competition,the Chinese semiconductor industry grapples with unprecedented challenges.Addressing theissueeof“bottleneck technology”has become a paramount concern among experts from various domains in China.However,the trajectory of the global semiconductor sector is inexorably linked to the innovation of its business models and adherence to the tenets of technological evolution.It can be posited that,without business model innovation,Moore's Law would cease to exist.In the semiconductor arena,where the first-mover advantage wields immense influence,exclusive focus on“technological breakthroughs”froma technical standpoint would invariably constrict itself within existing technological paradigms,leaving it susceptible to external control.This paper undertakes an in-depth examination of pivotal case studies,particularly that of TSMC and Samsung,two enterprises which transcended1their latecomer status and shattered the“glass ceiling”by embracing“business model innovations.”Through a comprehensive analysis,it introduces and delineates two distinctive avenues of business model innovation:paper“reconstruction of the division of labor system”aand“mismatched demand.”Subsequently,tthe researchini vestigates two more cases,SiEn Integrated Circuits Co.,Ltd.and Changguangg Group,exploring specific business modelinnovation paths,“innovation consortium”and“differentiated demand,”pertinentto latecomer semiconductor companies operating in China.Drawing from these insightsand considering thecurrent international competitive landscape and the ramifications of the COVID-19 pandemic,this paper culminates in the synthesis of eight breakthrough trajectories for latecomer semiconductor firms.These pathways are examined through the lenses of technology paradigms(traditional and emerging),market contextss(globalized and deglobalized),and various types of business model innovation(original and secondary).Furthermore,this research offersa comprehensive analysis and discussion concerning the resources,capabilities,andstrategies,with the ultimate objective of shedding light on the potential“breakthrough”avenuefor China's semiconductor industry.

Corporate Social Capital and Business Model Innovation： The Mediating Role of Organizational Learning

Existing studies demonstrate that corporate social capital can not only enable a firm to gain access to heterogeneous information and resources, but may also facilitate the establishment of behavioral norms, communication models and mutual-trust platforms with stakeholders in its social network. As a result, corporate social capital drives organizational changes and has the potential to boost business model innovation. This paper recognizes organizational learning as a mediating mechanism that transforms corporate social capital into business model innovation. Using survey data collected from 164 Chinese firms, we tested the relationship between corporate social capital and business model innovation, as well as the mediating effect of organizational learning. Our findings clearly show how corporate social capital flows through organizational leaming efforts to business model innovation.

Co-evolution:A New Perspective for Business Model Innovation

This paper combines the perspective of co-evolution with studies in the area of business model, reveals the phenomenon of business model co-evolution and explores the business model coevolution mechanism between firms through a case study. Findings and what other companies can learn from this study are as follows. Firstly, companies, be it leaders or not, can act as enablers for other party’s business model innovation. Secondly, companies can enable each other’s business model innovation by taking the perspective of business model co-evolution; Thirdly, the interdependence of the business model co-evolution process can be explained by the four levers named novelty, lock-in,complementarity and efficiency. Companies can select novelty, lock-in, complementarity, efficiency or the combination of the four as mediators to achieve business model co-evolution.

Disruptive Innovation in the Nordic Countries＇ Healthcare Systems

The Nordic healtheare model is recognized to be one of the most innovative in the world. Here billions of USD are annually invested in developing new treatments, drugs, robots etc. to diagnose and cure diseases. Nevertheless, this study establishes that there is a fundamental shortcoming in the system that supports healthcare innovation： It is strongly biased towards micro-level innovation projects focusing on new products, alternative processes, and new financial solutions. The problem with this approach to support new projects is that the results are created as inventions within the system thus lacking holistic perspectives. This has consequently contributed with increasing costs that are out of proportion with existing budgets. Therefore this study seeks to analyze the current understanding of the Nordic healthcare system from a business model perspective. Here other aspects of the healthcare system are explored to determine if they could be redesigned to promote new types of innovation projects. The purpose of undertaking this task is to challenge the established patterns of the current healthcare innovation support practices. Here the vertical innovation process （VIP） framework, which is a systematic radical innovation model that seeks macro-level outcomes based on standalone inventions （see more below）, is applied to analyze the current state-of-the-art in Nordic healthcare innovation projects. The results determine that very little attention is given to rethink and redesign the healthcare system at a macro-level, and it is discussed that stand-alone inventions ought to be rethought into the entire healthcare system to create a larger impact. Finally, it is argued that existing performance measures are inappropriate to foster projects that innovate the existing system： New measuring points should be developed to promote macro-level projects and to avoid the current rapid increase of costs in the Nordic healthcare system.

The Multiple Effects and Mechanism Study of Digitalization on the Performance of Manufacturing Enterprises

This paper establishes indicators to measure the degree of digitalization of enterprises with the text mining method,based on the 2011‒2018 annual report of China’s listed non-high-tech manufacturing companies,and in the resource-based view to investigate how digital resources affect the performance of enterprises during the digitalization process.The empirical results show that digitalization affects enterprise performance through management and sales activities.The impact of management and sales offset each other so that the total impact of digitalization degree on performance is not significant.The study also finds that the scale can strengthen the impact between digitalization and performance,yet the digitalization subsidies will lessen the impact.Generally,China’s non-high-tech manufacturing enterprises are still in the primary stage of digitalization,and the performance of digitalization in business model innovation is canceled out by management imbalance.
