Abstract

David Teece has made important contributions to strategy, innovation and international business (IB) and public policy, including reasons for the existence and organization of firms; how appropriability/value capture and transactional issues can influence innovative activity and value creation and the boundaries of the firm; and the role of dynamic capabilities in contributing to the sustainable competitive advantage (SCA) of firms. Recent work on dynamic capabilities integrates a considerable body of social science and management research and fashions a novel framework to help deepen understanding of the nature, essence, strategy and performance of the business enterprise.
