PublicationConquering the AI kingdom: Strategic positioning within a new competitive landscapeWith the rapid diffusion and widespread adoption of artificial intelligence (AI), businesses worldwide face unprecedented opportunities to reshape their strategies and gain competitive advantage. Amidst this technological shift, understanding why firms differ becomes paramount. This paper explores how firms strategically position themselves in the competitive landscape of AI. Drawing from the competitive dynamics (CD) and the resource-based view (RBV) literature, this paper leverages archival data from the LexisNexis database. It employs machine learning (ML) methods to investigate the underlying strategic actions of the leading AI-centric firms over a longitudinal period (2016-2023). Our findings reveal distinct phases and patterns of actions for positioning in the era of AI. Ultimately, this paper contributes to our understanding of future-oriented strategic positioning.Type: conference paper

PublicationPioneering in a New Technological Regime: A Resource Orchestration Perspective on Deriving Value from AI( 2023)
;Vinit ParidaThis paper explores how firms use resource orchestration (RO) to generate a technological regime advantage, particularly in the context of the advent of artificial intelligence (AI). While previous studies have primarily discussed firms' actions within their boundaries, comparatively little attention has been given to the role that RO activities play beyond the boundaries of the firm. To fill this gap, this paper examines the strategic actions of two large Swedish manufacturing multinationals in the mining and transportation industries in pioneering AI-based autonomous solutions. The qualitative analysis highlights three main strategic actions that incumbents initiate to ultimately generate a technological regime advantage. The findings and framework provide guidance for firms and serve as a foundation for further empirical academic research. -

PublicationUniversities in an age of uncertainty: 44 propositions on the future of universities( 2023-12-04)
;Oliver GassmannHigher education is known as one of the "least digitised and most people-intensive economic sectors". [1] While many other industries have been disrupted in their dominant logic of value creation, [2] the education sector has experienced few changes. It continues to pursue its historical ideal of 'educating autonomous individuals' [3]. The world is changing rapidly: Recent geopolitical challenges, social polarization, pandemic-induced disruptions, the exponential growth of knowledge and simultaneously increasing scepticism towards science, as well as evolving work modes in a global economy are indicators of that change. At the same time, new digital technologies such as generative artificial intelligence (AI) highlight the necessity and opportunity for transformation of the entire higher education sector.Type: newspaper articleJournal: Wissenschaftsmagazin 2023 -
PublicationCase: Future of Universities - Rethinking the Role of Universities(Lemmens Verlags- u.Medienges mbH, 2022)Preparing is high on the agenda: Universities play a crucial role in preparing the ground for the future. They must prepare their students to be collaborative and, therefore, competitive. This requires new skills and, very importantly, a new mindset. Universities must prepare and educate the next generation for huge global challenges.Type: newspaper articleJournal: Wissenschaftsmanagement
