What is VRIO?
Source: Jay Barney 1999?
Haven't heard of VRIO, but sounds derivative of Michael Porter's work on Strategy.
And especially Resource Based Theory.
And especially whether resources are: (in order to Achiev[e] a sustainable competitive advantage)
Valuable - they enable a firm to implement strategies that improve its efficiency and effectiveness.
Rare - not available to other competitors.
Imperfectly imitable - not easily implemented by others.
Non-substitutable - not able to be replaced by some other non-rare resource (which looks like or very close to VRIO)
There's a very big rabbit hole to go down here....
Is Research Data intended to give SCA(sustainable competitive advantage)?
- the business of research
- the research of business
How does competition relate to research?
- competing for grants
- competing for promotion
- competing for having answers generally accepted
- competing for policy influence
