For the design of this zero-emission zone, several research questions arise that require a...

Competing Standard-Setting Organizations: A Choice Experiment

Standard-setting organizations (SSOs) establish goal-directed networks for innovators to jointly shape technology and markets through standards. The degree to which this can succeed depends to a large extent on network characteristics, which may differ substantially between SSOs. Many technological fields face intense competition between SSOs....
