Example of product matrix of firm and current competition New developments in bio- and nanotechnologies and also in information and communication technologies have shaped the research environment in the last decade. Increasingly, highly educated experts in R&D departments are collaborating with scientists and researchers at universities and research institutes to develop new technologies. Transnational companies that have acquired various firms in different countries need to manage diverse R&D strategies and cultures. The new knowledge-based economy permeates across companies, universities, research institutes and countries, creating a cross-disciplManagement of technology (Hackensack, N.J.) ;v. 1.Technological innovationsManagementCongressesTechnological innovationsEconomic aspectsCongressesTechnological innovationsManagementTechnological innovationsEconomic aspects658.5/14Hörlesberger Marianne1655019El-Nawawi Mohamed1655020Khalil Tarek M1638270International Conference on Management of Technology(14th :2005 :Vienna, Austria)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910818197003321Challenges in the management of new technologies4007183UNINA
