Managing industrial knowledge : creation, transfer and utilization
This volume of collected papers came out of the second and third annual University of California, Berkeley, Forums on Knowledge and the Firm held in autumn 1998 and 1999. Berkeley is a great centre of learning and in the past has excelled at linking together different disciplines and cultures. The Knowledge Forums were no exception, bringing together faculty members from across disciplines and continents, as well as senior executives from around the world. The Forums have self-consciously endeavoured to advance several themes, which the editors trust are re?ected in this book. One is that knowledge assets now form the basis of competitive advantage among global ?rms. The ability to create, protect, transfer and utilize knowledge assets is at the core of commercial progress and wealth creation today. Second, knowledge management involves much more than the development and deployment of new IT-based knowledge management systems. Third, we believe that the amount of disturbance technological and marketplace innovation is delivering is such that society needs new frameworks and models to explain the practices and future requirements of knowledge-based ?rms and organizations. Fourth, because of the poor state of knowledge about knowledge management, it is important at this stage to generate new ideas and frameworks rather than focus on the rigorous empirical testing of hypotheses. There will be plenty of scope for that later. The co-editors wish to thank the ?nancial sponsors of the forums, which have included Fuji Xerox, Xerox Corporation, Fujitsu Limited, Fujitsu Research Institute, Fujitsu Business Systems, and Eisai Corporation, as well as grant funds from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and the Air Force Of?ce of Scienti?c Research. The Institute of Management, Innovation and Organization (IMO) at University of California Berkeley was not just a ?nancial sponsor, but also provided the able staff to make it happen. These included Anita Patterson, Athena Katsaros, Janet Mowery, Stuart Graham, Satoshi Akutsu and Ryoko Toyama. We would like to especially thank Patricia Murphy, the Assistant Director of IMO. Without her sel?ess dedication, keen eyes, in?nite patience and warm heart, neither the forums nor this book were possible.
