Klappentext zu „Business-to-Business “
Contemporary business-to-business (B2B) industries consist of networks of customers, competitors and other stakeholders. Firms which manage their relationships with these important stakeholders are more likely to enjoy a sustained competitive advantage in the international business environment. This book is the first to provide a comprehensive overview of the field from a broad and accessible perspective. The authors bring an authoritative, scholarly understanding to the subject, taking readers through the entire process of creating, developing and maintaining B2B networks. Case studies illustrating each chapter include: Apple, Panasonic, Johnson & Johnson, Epson and Samsung.
In providing a single and explicit established academic framework for understanding business networks in a global setting, this book is vital reading for students and researchers involved with international management, international marketing and strategic management.

'In light of global competition, this new book by Glowik and Bruhs allows for the interpretation of the new global strategies, both corporate and competitive. Tracing the main literature on the "competition-cooperation relationship literature" between market actors and focusing on the implications of their analysis throughout the use of case studies, the book offers a deep understanding of the importance of relationships in the actual and complex context of the development of companies and markets.'
