| Research Abstract |
Industrial fusion and related phenomena are investigated theoretically and empirically. Results are on three directions. First, in the process of industrial fusion, firms compete in commitments on extended strategic space, which consists of product line and price. Second, as a result of industrial fusion, merged industries evolve into so-called two-sided market. Then, distribution of stakes becomes crucial for growth of markets. Third, industrial fusion is observed increasing in many industries and the tendency show robust associations with labor mobility, investments, R&D activities, and more efficient information process.
