The real options-based conceptual framework for alliance-making
presented here responds to the challenge of developing a new
metrics for managing strategic partnerships in the face of
uncertainty. Such a framework involves: mapping (and selecting one
of) the various staged paths envisioned for the start-up and
development of the alliance in terms of strategic options
exercisable over the lifetime of the cooperative venture; assessing
the incremental, synergistic value of those options (if exercised
on the net, tangible and intangible, assets of the venture);
anticipating the potential impact of risks on the success/failure
of the venture and associated synergistic value erosion; defining
the optimal option map for implementing the strategic alliance via
potential, successive adjustments to the initial strategy
(information loop is closed).
Economics of private equity (PE). Empirical evidence on Italian
manufacturing firms resorting to internal equity only to finance
investments with positive NPV. Normative framework providing
guidelines on how their entrepreneurial model (governance, gearing,
growth) would be favourably influenced by conventional PE actions.
Policy recommendations on how to expedite PE ownership expansion in
Italy and other European countries.
Sustainable Energy Systems on Ships is a comprehensive technical
reference for all aspects of energy efficient shipping. The book
discusses the technology options to make shipping energy
consumption greener, focusing on the smarter integration of energy
streams, the introduction of renewable resources and the
improvement of control and operability. Chapters not only describe
each technology individually, but also analyze their
interconnections when implemented onboard, and compare them in
terms of suitability for different vessels and economic viability.
Readers of Sustainable Energy Systems on Ships will find an
invaluable reference suitable for researchers, professionals, and
managers involved in the shipping industry and those working on
related energy efficiency technologies, fuel cells, and in the
transport industry generally. Students of maritime engineering will
also be well served by this reference.
