The authors contend that the current understanding of lead markets does not sufficiently explain the business practices that are born out of the intensified globalization of innovation. Lead markets are considered crucial for the global diffusion of new products and this book investigates whether sustainable lead markets can also emerge in developing economies, and if so, under which conditions. The authors question the conventional wisdom and propose updates and extensions to the lead market theory to better reflect the changing ground realities on ground.India Studies in Business and Economics,2198-0012ManagementIndustrial managementGlobalizationMarketsEconomic policyLeadershipAutomotive engineeringInnovation/Technology Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/518000Emerging Markets/Globalizationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/525010R & D/Technology Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W43000Business Strategy/Leadershiphttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/515010Automotive Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17047Management.Industrial management.Globalization.Markets.Economic policy.Leadership.Automotive engineering.Innovation/Technology Management.Emerging Markets/Globalization.R & D/Technology Policy.Business Strategy/Leadership.Automotive Engineering.338.926Tiwari Rajnishauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut972844Herstatt Corneliusauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910298544403321Aiming Big with Small Cars2510042UNINA
