چکیده
The rapid technological developments in domains involving multiple technologies, like ICT, compel firms to enter into inter-firm arrangements to facilitate access to extramural resources. However, participation in strategic technology alliances often requires an updated management practice that can cope with the complexities of interfirm collaboration. When ventures reach the commercialisation stage, the alliance of firms supporting them often lacks the necessary inter-firm arrangements required for sustainability. This paper presents and discusses such a case, namely the commercialisation process of an innovative service developed in the context of a strategic technology alliance. We identify changes in the alliance management agenda which are substantiated using a life cycle perspective. The initiation and configuration stages of this life cycle are further analysed and a new informed management practice for alliance partners is outlined.
