Search engines are examples of platforms characterized by network externalities. They harvest the attention of users and resell this attention to advertisers. As such, standard market mechanisms typical of single-sided markets do not apply. In our model, advertisers are willing to pay a higher premium for targeted search results utilizing consumer data. As such, a search engine like Google can command higher prices per sponsored link if it collects more personalized data from its users. This must be balanced against demand effects stemming from consumer aversion towards the disclosure of personal data. DuckDuckGo, a search engine that explicitly does not collect consumer data, can use investments in consumer aversion strategically to capture market shares from Google. We find that Google has an incentive to collect consumer data and that the presence of DuckDuckGo will moderate the amount. We also find that as consumer aversion to advertisements increases, Google will choose to collect more consumer data as DuckDuckGo’s incentives to respond with investments in privacy awareness are reduced. 1 2020 0 PubID 36946 7 0 Pub_TypeNumber A09/20 7 1 Pub_Writer Øystein Evenstad 7 2 Pub_Title The role of data: A two-sided model of competition between Google and DuckDuckGo 7 3 Pub_Publication /Files 7 4 Pub_AbstractEn This thesis aims to analyze the consumer data’s role as a revenue-shifting input in a two-sided competition-in-utility model between a search engine collecting personalized consumer data (Google) and one that does not (DuckDuckGo).

Information from the media firm is uncertain but truthful, and consumers enjoy confirmation of their prior beliefs due to cognitive dissonances. We show that, even if real news is more valued than fake news, entry by fake news providers becomes more profitable with the variance of information. Furthermore, a public news provider makes entry for fake news providers harder compared to a profit-maximizing media firm. 1 2020 0 PubID 36945 8 0 Pub_TypeNumber A07/20 8 1 Pub_Writer Martin Richardson and Frank Stähler 8 2 Pub_Title Some Economics of Echo Chambers 8 3 Pub_Publication /Files/Filer/Publications/A07_20.pdf 8 4 Pub_AbstractEn This paper analyzes competition between a media firm providing true information (news) and two “fake news” providers that create echo chambers.

The third provider (an entrant) invests in partial coverage, and needs to rent access from one of its rivals in order to provide nationwide coverage. The paper is motivated by the Norwegian mobile market, where the competition authorities imposed a fine of EUR 78 million on Telenor (the dominant incumbent) for abusing market power by changing the access price structure in such a way that it hampered the entrant’s investment incentives. Specifically, Telenor reduced the rental rate for the actual use of Telenor’s network. At the same time, they introduced a SIM card fee payable by the entrant for each of its consumers. We show that the relationship between the change in the access price structure and the entrant’s investment level is ambiguous. Competition among the vertically-integrated providers in the access market may drive them to offer a structure that benefits the entrant. Thus, the observed change in access price structure may be the outcome of intensified upstream competition rather than abuse of market power. 1 2020 0 PubID 36944 9 0 Pub_TypeNumber A06/20 9 1 Pub_Writer Malin Arve, Øystein Foros and Hans Jarle Kind 9 2 Pub_Title Access-price structure and entrants’ build-or-buy incentives in mobile markets 9 3 Pub_Publication /Files/Filer/Publications/A06_20.pdf 9 4 Pub_AbstractEn We consider a market structure with three mobile providers, two of which are vertically integrated and have nationwide coverage.

A case study exploring organizational agility in practice /Files/Filer/Publications/R06_20.pdf <p>In this case study, I explore if and how agile ways of working influence change capacity. In that, I investigate the effects on change capacity at both the organizational and individual level. First, to gain an understanding of the prevalent perspectives and arguments on agile and change capacity, literature was reviewed. Second, qualitative data was collected from a single firm set within the banking industry. The findings from this were then analyzed as &lsquo;actions&rsquo; taken by the firm represented by agile ways of working, and the &lsquo;outcome&rsquo; represented by organizational and individual change capacity. While the actions were synonymous with those described in agile literature, the outcome revealed completely new insights not previously addressed by scholars.</p> <p>This study indicates that agile ways of working positively influence change capacity; at the organizational level, by creating shared understanding and quick results. Additionally, it shows that the organization&rsquo;s sensing capabilities are enhanced at the operational level with scope to further optimize them at the strategic level. The influence of agile ways of working on the firm&rsquo;s seizing capabilities is undeniable, as the organization is able to adapt and respond to changes in a rapid manner like never before. At the individual level, agile ways of working create change readiness and trust. At the same time, some risks are identified at both levels, including backlog of work, stress, and fatigue. The positive effects outweigh the risks significantly, indicating the magnitude of benefits an organization can potentially enjoy by adopting agile ways of working.</p> <p>This thesis provides novel and valuable insights to practitioners regarding the benefits of agile ways of working and how its specific elements can build change capacity. It also highlights the role of top management in the process. This study is especially beneficial to those managers who are considering agile ways of working or have recently implemented it at their firm.</p> 2 2020 0 PubID 36932 17 0 Pub_TypeNumber R06/20 17 1 Pub_Writer Samyuktha Kamath 17 2 Pub_Title The Influence of Agile Ways of Working on Change Capacity.

I further draw on my informants&rsquo; experiences with historical innovation units that emerged from within the newspaper department.</p> <p>I inductively develop a process model that reveals the different structural configurations an exploratory unit traverses as time goes by. I ascertain that the innovation process consists of four distinct, yet interrelated phases: scouting, separating, maturing, and reintegrating. While the main focus of this thesis lies on the exploratory unit, my analysis also reveals several implications for structural ambidexterity on the corporate level. By taking a process approach, my study enriches the currently prevailing static approach and shows that established firms ought to engage in iterative innovation processes to realize the full potential of structural ambidexterity. This enables them to stay innovative and continuously renew themselves.</p> <p>My findings contribute to extant research by offering a process view of how innovation units evolve over time. I propose that the paradox stemming from the innovation division&rsquo;s need to explore new opportunities while simultaneously maintaining previously explored technologies can be handled by becoming contextually ambidextrous. This finding dilutes the lines between the two organizational ambidexterity modes that are presented in traditional literature as distinct. My research further suggests that structural ambidexterity is not a one-time decision, but rather an iterative process.</p> <p>This study also has practical implications for managers tasked with innovation. From the exploratory unit&rsquo;s perspective, managers should see the bigger picture (i.e. their contribution to the focal firm&rsquo;s strategic renewal) and internalize the natural progression of the relationship with the established firm over time. Further, it highlights the necessity to train generalists and create a context that enables employees to handle the emerging exploration-exploitation dilemma. On the corporate level, this study reveals that top managers need to constantly manage several innovation processes to ensure sustained innovativeness. It thus highlights the value of managers who have experience with the innovation process for building the required change capacity. Moreover, it requires managers from the established firm to continuously assess how mature an innovation is and to adapt the organizational structure accordingly. </p> 2 2020 0 PubID 36931 18 0 Pub_TypeNumber R05/20 18 1 Pub_Writer Vera Patrizia Schmidt 18 2 Pub_Title Developing Capacity for Continuous Renewal of the Established Firm 18 3 Pub_Publication /Files/Filer/Publications/R05_20.pdf 18 4 Pub_AbstractEn <p>This thesis explores how innovation units within structurally ambidextrous established firms evolve over time.

On the corporate level, this study reveals that top managers need to constantly manage several innovation processes to ensure sustained innovativeness. It thus highlights the value of managers who have experience with the innovation process for building the required change capacity. Moreover, it requires managers from the established firm to continuously assess how mature an innovation is and to adapt the organizational structure accordingly. </p> 18 5 Pub_Type 2 18 6 Pub_Year 2020 18 7 Pub_OldID 0 18 8 36930 R03/20 Astrid Sandvik og Aurora Solberg Engen Ledelse av agile team /Files/Filer/Publications/R03_20.pdf 2 2020 0 PubID 36930 19 0 Pub_TypeNumber R03/20 19 1 Pub_Writer Astrid Sandvik og Aurora Solberg Engen 19 2 Pub_Title Ledelse av agile team 19 3 Pub_Publication /Files/Filer/Publications/R03_20.pdf 19 4 Pub_AbstractEn 19 5 Pub_Type 2 19 6 Pub_Year 2020 19 7 Pub_OldID 0 19 8 36929 R02/20 Frida Christensen og Frida Gustafsson Når smidige modeller begrenser smidighet.
