dc.description.abstract | [EN] Purpose –
This paper aims to investigate how the implementation of the inter-cooperation principle
among Spanish machine-tool cooperatives helps them to coopete–collaborate with
competitors, in their innovation and internationalization processes and achieve collaborative
advantages.
Design/methodology/approach – The paper uses a multi-case approach based on interviews
with 15 CEOs and research and development (R&D) managers, representing 14 Spanish
machine tool firms and institutions. Eight of these organizations are worker-cooperatives..
Findings – Worker -cooperatives achieve advantages on innovation and internationalization
via inter-cooperation (shared R&D units, joint sales offices, joint after-sale services,
knowledge exchange and relocation of key R&D technicians and managers). Several mutual
bonds and ties among cooperatives help to overcome the risk of opportunistic behaviour and
knowledge leakage associated to coopetition. The obtained results give some clues explaining
to what extent and under which conditions coopetitive strategies of cooperatives are
transferable to other types of ownership arrangements across sectors.
Practical implications – Firms seeking cooperation with competitors in their R&D and
internationalization processes can learn from the coopetitive arrangements analyzed in the
paper.
Social implications – Findings can be valuable for sectoral associations and public bodies
trying to promote coopetition and alliances between competitors as a means to benefit from
collaborative advantages.
Originality/value – Focusing on an “ideal type” of co-operation -cooperative organisationsand
having access to primary sources, the paper shows to what extent (and how) strong
coopetitive structures and processes foster innovation and internationalization. | es_ES |
