Movie industry experts continuously debate whether the industry’s enormous investments in stars pay off. To derive empirical generalizations, the authors (1) provide a meta-analysis of the relationship between star power and movie success and (2) analyze a comprehensive dataset from that industry with n=1,545 movies. Based on these two studies, four empirical generalizations emerge. First, when ignoring selection effects of stars, the impact of star power on box office revenues is strongly upwards biased. Second, artistic star power (cf. commercial) is associated with significantly lower box office revenues. Third, on average, movies with a commercially successful star (cf. without a commercially successful star) generate 12.46 million US$ additional box office revenues. In contrast, artistic star power does not result in a statistically significant revenue premium. Fourth, commercially (artistically) successful stars have a statistically significant “multiplier effect” of 1.127 (1.083) on other characteristics that influence a movie’s box office revenues.

What is Strategic Renewal?

In times of crisis, SME entrepreneurs update and replace the firm’s resources and capabilities within strategic renewal processes in order to maintain organizational resilience. Appearing in the form of internal development and external sourcing, the outcomes of strategic renewal are explained by the synergy of individual, organizational, and environmental factors that reinforce SMEs’ dynamic capabilities. This research presents a qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) of the conjunctural causality between multi-level dynamic capability configurations and SME strategic renewal outcomes.

What is the option in finance?

An option is the right to buy (call) or sell (put) an underlying asset at a predetermined expiration date and price, known as the strike price. The underlying asset can be a commodity, currency, interest rate, stock, or bond. The expiration date is the date on which the option is exercised. Options can be used as hedging tools or to speculate on whether the price of an underlying asset will rise or fall.

Innovation Pays Off—Especially with University Partners

Cette étude analyse 2 986 entreprises d’Amérique latine (2009–2017, base LAIS) pour comprendre comment les collaborations universités–entreprises influencent le lien entre dépenses d’innovation et résultats d’innovation. Les résultats montrent (1) une relation positive entre dépenses et résultats, et (2) un effet modérateur significatif de la collaboration universitaire : à budget équivalent, les entreprises partenaires des universités obtiennent davantage d’innovations. La qualité des partenariats compte autant que leur existence. Implications : structurer la coopération (objectifs, IP), investir dans le capital humain, et mobiliser les ressources académiques comme amplificateurs de capacité.

Beyond Tech Transfer: How University Collaborations Turn R&D into Results

Les entreprises investissent massivement en R&D, mais l’impact reste parfois inégal. Travailler avec les universités aide à passer des idées aux solutions utiles—non seulement via les brevets ou les équipements, mais grâce à la dimension humaine des connaissances. Un langage partagé, des routines simples et un apprentissage conjoint alignent les équipes et évitent les retours en arrière. En co-concevant le cahier des charges, en libérant un peu de temps aux chercheurs et en s’appuyant sur un soutien juridique et de gestion de projet solide, la collaboration avance mieux. Le prestige peut ouvrir la première porte, mais la valeur naît du travail quotidien ensemble : adoption plus rapide, processus améliorés, compétences qui restent dans l’entreprise. Quand les universités reconnaissent et valorisent ces résultats, les partenariats se renforcent. En bref : investir dans la relation qui porte le savoir-faire sécurise et améliore le rendement de la R&D.

Managing the client portfolio for long-term survival

Our goal was to understand the effectiveness of a company in attracting its customer targets. To do this, we have developed a model that links a company’s marketing activities to the mix of customers who buy from the company. Most marketing models simply ask how a company’s marketing activities influence the number of customers who buy the brand. We wondered how a company’s marketing activities influence the types of customers who buy the brand.

What are Targeting Algorithms?

Not-for-profit organizations have long faced the challenge of balancing budgets when they simultaneously seek to retain and recruit new donors. In principle, existing donors can be targeted based on their previous donation data. However, for new donors, this data is not available or may be difficult to obtain from secondary sources. What should non-profit organizations do? We suggest 2 alternatives.

Digital Brand Equity in the Digital Age

Tools and metrics for brand equity are proving inadequate in the rapidly evolving digital era. The study proposes a novel approach to Digital Brand Equity metrics. These metrics should not be based solely on social media and current digital indicators. New metrics should incorporate the share of search, digital brand awareness, and digital brand sentiment constructs. The study develops a Digital Brand Equity research agenda and underscores the critical research and policy questions

What is a Virtual Influencer?

Virtual influencers are 100% Computer Generated Influencers created by AI and 3D artists. These virtual influences can model, sing, and even interact with fans—without ever existing in real life. Despite the risks of virtual influencers (e.g., lack of authenticity, ethical and transparency concerns, etc.), they represent enormous opportunities for brands.
