摘要

Commercialization is the successful marketing of innovative products. We are interested in knowing how firms in the MEMS industry carry out this commercialization and whether their technology affects their marketing strategies. To gather information on this, we surveyed top managers of all firms attending the COMS 2002 conference in Ypsilanti Michigan. We asked these managers to describe their first product's technology focus, market strategies and overall success with this combination of technology and market strategy. This paper presents the results of that survey. We find that respondents report that technology does affect their choice of marketing strategy. Large firms tend to develop technologies that evolve from their technological competences developed over a period of time. Furthermore, they tend to sell these MEMS products to their existing customers as replacements or substitutes for their current products. Small firms tend to prefer new technologies for their first product more so than large firms. However, smaller firms market strategies are evenly split between offering replacement or substitute products for customers and initiating totally new products unknown in the targeted industry.rnThese results reinforce those found from analysis of responses from the survey at COMS 2002 in Santa Fe. Moreover, theory suggests that these findings are correct. Large firms will use their technological competencies to develop new products and sell these to existing customers. Small firms typically are entrepreneurial startups and have no existing customers. They tend to use new technology based upon recent R&D. But, they often launch their first product as a replacement or substitute for existing products currently in use by potential customers. This market strategy produces more revenue in a shorter period of time so as to supply operating capital on which the firm can survive.rnThe managers also reported the time required to move from research to first sale of a product. Smaller firms required about one half the time to market than that required by largPerhaps timing is the principal advantage that smaller firms have over large firms in the market for new products.rnThe responses to the performance evaluation items in the survey show that performance is positively related to degree of use of new technologies, time to market and focus on replacement or substitute products. This is the first indication of what technology and strategy choices lead to the greatest success.
