Technological diversification, core-technology competence, and firm growth (2016, background): “…firms diversify their technological bases to exploit economies of scope in R&D and technological knowledge, thereby using their technological resources efficiently and leading to synergy among diverse knowledge across multiple product lines (Miller, 2006; Panzar and Willig, 1981; Teece, 1982).”
The Impact of Role Identities on Entrepreneurs’ Evaluation and Selection of Opportunities (2017, background): “Studies generally find that related diversification provides the optimal level of benefit (Miller, 2006; Palich, Cardinal, & Miller, 2000) as managers and executives can minimize transaction costs and create significant value for their organizations by pursuing related diversification (Wan, Hoskisso”
Controlling for endogeneity with instrumental variables in strategic management research (2008, background): “…well explained in the management literature (e.g. Campa and Kedia, 2002; Graham et al., 2002; Hamilton and Nickerson, 2003; Li and Prabhala, 2006; Miller, 2006; Shaver, 1998), more attention will be devoted in this article to understanding the sources and consequences of the errors-in-variables…”
The relationship between product and international diversification: the effects of short‐run constraints and endogeneity (2009, background): “Studies have shown that failure to correct for endogeneity often leads to misleading conclusions about the impact of various strategies on firm performance (Shaver, 1998; Mudambi and Mudambi, 2002; Hamilton and Nickerson, 2003; Villalonga, 2004; Salomon and Shaver, 2005; Miller, 2006).”
Escaping the Prior Knowledge Corridor: What Shapes the Number and Variety of Market Opportunities Identified Before Market Entry of Technology Start-ups? (2013, background): “and how such moves affect performance (Miller 2006).”
The effects of global knowledge reservoirs on the productivity of multinational enterprises: The role of international depth and breadth (2012, background): “Product diversification: Extant research suggests that diversification affects firm performance (Bettis, 1981; Miller, 2006), and may help the organization conduct broader search.”
Performance Differentials Between Diversifying Entrants and Entrepreneurial start-ups: A Complexity Approach (2009, unknown): “…hailing back to Penrose (1959), discusses value creation through related industry entry as a means to leverage existing firm capabilities related to technologies, knowledge, and organizational routines (Farjoun, 1998; Markides & Williamson, 1994; Miller, 2006; Teece, Rumelt, Dosi, & Winter, 1994).”
Substitutability and complementarity of technological knowledge and the inventive performance of semiconductor companies (2014, background): “Finally, the role of knowledge synergies in business diversificaion has been emphasized in the literature (Grant, 1996a,b; Teece t al., 1994; Kim and Kogut, 1996; Miller, 2006).”
