产业集群生命周期理论探析

学术界普遍认为产业集群存在着生命周期,并且有众多学者对其生命周期理论进行过专门的论述。文章从引述研究集群生命周期的典型文献入手,探析其间存在的异同与联系,进而总结出产业集群沿其生命周期演进的三种重要驱动因素,并且依据这些驱动因素对产业集群生命周期各阶段的典型表征进行解释,最后对本研究的局限性以及该理论未来研究方向进行了简要说明。     

Annuity Markets and Retirement Security

The growing importance of defined contribution pension arrangements has drawn increased attention to the means by which retired people draw down their assets. Current UK law requires annuitisation of at least a fraction of defined contribution plan accumulations. Annuity markets have recently attracted some criticism with respect to pricing and the available range of product options. This paper describes a key feature of voluntary annuity markets: the presence of ‘adverse selection’. This is the tendency of annuitants to live longer than non‐annuitants, since individuals who know that they are likely to die soon do not purchase annuities. The paper presents information that quantifies the importance of adverse selection in the setting of private annuity prices and discusses the role of compulsory annuitisation requirements in reducing it. Requiring individuals to participate in the annuity market can reduce selection effects, at the cost of reducing individuals' range of retirement income options.     

“In pursuit of the real deal”: A longitudinal study of VC decision making

This paper investigates actual Venture Capital (VC) decision making as it occurs over time in its natural decision environment. Our qualitative analysis is based on a comprehensive, longitudinal data set comprising 11 years of archival data from a European-based VC firm. During this time, the VC managed two funds, reviewed a total of 3631 deals, and made 35 investments. By adopting this research methodology, we can overcome several limitations of post-hoc methods and experiments commonly used in this research stream, and also have the opportunity to tackle some fundamental, yet hitherto elusive research topics. For example, our findings reveal how the importance of decision-making criteria varies between different stages of the evaluation process. They also show how VC portfolio composition and VC management time serve as important, yet to-date largely neglected decision-making criteria. Implications for research and practice are outlined.     

中国企业生命周期阶段划分及其度量研究

运用财务综合指标法、现金流分类组合法和销售与资本支出曲线趋势变化法,对近年来中国A股上市公司的生命周期进行定量划分。采用第一种方法和第三种方法得出的结果,注重企业财务指标及发展演进时间序列的具体表现,采用的第二种方法则强调划分依据的真实性与所反映企业信息的准确性;通过比较近年来中国市场上基金产品选股与本文的划分结果,发现成长型或价值型的股票基金产品年度持股与三种方法下划分的结果比较吻合,从而验证了三种方法的合理性及可应用性。     

Achieving strategic benefits from project investments: Appoint a project owner

Even though we have gotten better at meeting the iron triangle of cost, time, and scope, many projects still do not achieve the strategic benefits—especially those that are nonmonetary—desired in most contemporary projects. Given that no one is specifically accountable for delivering these benefits, it should be no surprise that these projects are largely unsuccessful. We consider multiple possible candidates for this role of accountability—the CEO, the project manager, the sponsor, and the program manager—and find none of them acceptable, thereby necessitating the formalization of a new role: a project owner. The project owner would be accountable for delivering the strategic benefits desired from each project. In this article, we describe the responsibilities of the project owner at each phase of the project, the sources for candidates to fulfill this role, and the training needed for project owners to find success. We conclude with a case study of an organization that has taken this route and discuss the advantages and challenges that resulted from its strategic organizational change initiative.     

支持MBSE的企业信息管理系统发展与启示

多年的实践表明，基于模型的系统工程（MBSE）没有被大规模采用的主要原因之一是缺乏对整个系统生命周期内各类模型进行管理的能力和手段。在此背景下，介绍了模型管理与MBSE、产品生命周期管理（PLM）的概念及其之间的关系，分析了不同行业的模型管理现状，提出了模型管理的解决方案与技术方向，最后给出了建设企业信息管理系统的建议，以期为企业信息管理系统支持MBSE及后续发展提供思路。     

浙江省纺织产业集群的生命周期——基于TOPSIS评价方法

构建了集群变迁诱因及特征变化趋势的演化路径图,并利用TOPSIS评价方法分析了浙江纺织业中小企业集群的变迁诱因及其特征变化,发现浙江纺织业中小企业集群处于生命周期的成熟阶段。研究结果表明,为防止集群从成熟向衰退发展,必须采取中观政策干预,激发新的诱因和特征转变,从而改变集群发展轨迹。
