    BUILDING THE KNOWLEDGE SOCIETY ON THE INTERNETSHARING AND EXCHANGING KNOWLEDGE IN NETWORKED ENVIRONMENTS

    No full text
    In today's networked societies, a key factor of the social and economic success is the capability to exchange, transfer, and share knowledge. In the wide-ranging area of knowledge management, the issue of knowledge exchange in networked environments emerges in several application fields, and is treated with different approaches. Building the Knowledge Society on the Internet: Sharing and Exchanging Knowledge in Networked Environments proposes a vast panorama of research on the topic while presenting a variety of viewpoints, approaches, and indications of the shared elements intended as the foundations of an emerging and fascinating multidisciplinary field

    Capitalising knowledge exchanges: an interpretative model

    Full text link
    In today’s economy, companies establish intense interactions with trading partners: co-design teams and other formal/informal structures are commonly used to implement collaborative knowledge creating processes. However, companies not only learn from R&D but from all the operational or managerial activities that are involved in trading. Business relationships are often represented just in terms of “economic transactions”, namely the material acts of exchanging goods and money. However, the act of trading involves an intense exchange of knowledge between the parties. Companies learn from all the operational or managerial activities that are involved in a business relationship; so, it is important to understand the mechanisms by which they can capitalise knowledge exchanges with trading partners. To represent these processes, the paper employs and develops the model of knowledge transaction proposed in a previous study: a knowledge transaction is defined as the act of exchanging valuable pieces of knowledge. The model is applied for representing and interpreting the mechanisms of inter-firm interactions that are involved in economic transactions between a seller (more precisely, a supplier) and a buyer (i.e. a client firm). Since any economic transaction implies a number of communications before, during, and after the material exchange, and these communications carry pieces of knowledge, consequently they involve a number of knowledge transactions. Each piece of knowledge has a value for both the “sender” and the “receiver”. Consequently, a knowledge transaction implies a “payback” that may consist in another piece of valuable knowledge. To validate the usefulness of the model of knowledge transaction, a case-study analysis of inter-firm business relationships and economic transactions in a group of interacting firms (i.e.: the SAP network) is proposed. The case-study, that focuses on the identification and analysis of knowledge transactions occurring in trading, allows to verify the potential usefulness of the model, to highlight the current elements of weakness of this research line, and to suggest the points of a future research agenda

    Knowledge Assets in Virtual Enterprises: Sources of Risk and Management Issues

    No full text
    Virtual Enterprises (VEs) are business models characterised by the aggregation of co-operating firms that share a common goal such as a business opportunity or a project. In these structures, knowledge can be seen as a primary asset. There is a subdivision of cognitive tasks among specialised companies, which exchange knowledge much before they even exchange goods or money. Assuming a knowledgebased view of VEs, implies the necessity to define appropriate methods to manage knowledge exchanges and the associated risks. The aim of this chapter is to explore the nature of knowledge flows in a VE and study the connected managerial issues to point out the different knowledge-related risk factors and to discuss the challenges posed by their successful management. To provide a practical example, the chapter also illustrates the findings of a real-life case-study
