Peer influence in network markets: a theoretical and empirical analysis
Henkel, Joachim; Block, Jörn - In: Journal of Evolutionary Economics 23 (2013) 5, pp. 925-953
Network externalities spur the growth of networks and the adoption of network goods in two ways. First, they make it more attractive to join a network the larger its installed base. Second, they create incentives for network members to actively recruit new members. Despite indications that the...

Diffusion of Behavior in Network Games Orchestrated by Social Learning
Huang, Jia-Ping; Koster, Maurice; Lindner, Ines - Tinbergen Instituut - 2013
The novelty of our model is to combine models of collective action on networks with models of social learning. Agents are connected according to an undirected graph, the social network, and have the choice between two actions: either to adopt a new behavior or technology or stay with the default...

Timing of Technology Adoption and Product Market Competition
Milliou, Chrysovalantou; Petrakis, Emmanuel - CESifo - 2009
This paper examines how product market competition affects firms’ timing of adopting a new technology as well as whether the market provides sufficient adoption incentives. It shows that adoption dates differ not only among symmetric firms but also among markets with Cournot and Bertrand...

Intangible resources and technology adoption in manufacturing firms
Gómez, Jaime; Vargas, Pilar - In: Research Policy 41 (2012) 9, pp. 1607-1619
Our objective in this paper is to analyse the determinants of the use of advanced manufacturing technologies in manufacturing firms. We go beyond more traditional approaches and consider the role of complementarities in technology adoption at two levels. First, we adapt Teece's (1986) framework...
