to Western panies accusing those in developing countries of patent infringements. Many hightech operations are succeeding abroad as well. China Medical Technologies, a supplier of invitro diagnosis and treatment systems, petes with MNCs and mands a market share of more than 90% in at least one product segment and 70% in another, according to a July 2021 report from Citigroup Global Markets. Choosing a Business Model For panies in developed economies that want to harness Chinese innovation, Wharton and BCG experts say it39。D to pete differently or to expand into fundamentally new markets, Andrew says. And while piracy has eroded profit opportunities in China39。s. But with increased petition everywhere, it takes products and services that are more innovative and targeted to needs that are not already being met. One recent example is a soybean blender that produces a popular soy milk drink. Joyoung Co. in Jinan, China39。s online game market, according to Man Stanley Research. Development Attitude and Disruption Such industry specialization is mon. Corporate Ramp。s run by people who understand the needs of Western pharmaceutical panies and know how to leverage local engineering talent to do the work. This kind of division of labor is mon in such EastWest partnerships. Western panies typically tap into Chinese design for parts or modules, Michael says. One global energy pany gets a lot of its design for oil exploration and drilling facilities in China at the local oil panies39。D is in lowcost labor but for brains, not brawn. When Western or worldclass business practices line up with low Chinese costs, new types of panies develop to take advantage of this opportunity, he notes. In health sciences, for instance, some Chinese panies are already responding to Western research needs with lowcost services. Michael offers WuXi PharmaTech in Shanghai39。D centers in China, It is more about accessing talent rather than some unique source of innovation, Michael notes. That makes innovation in China substantially different from that in other global hubs such as the Silicon Valley. There is lowcost engineering talent in China, but that39。 (research) that is increasingly relevant not just to China39。s Beijing office. Some of institutes have since been repurposed for new mercial goals. Such is the case with the stateowned oil pany PetroChina, which has a large work of design institutes within it, according to Michael. MNCs now realize that China has tremendous development capabilities, including the ability to size up opportunities and rapidly bring products to shelves at low cost. The availability of welleducated talent is particularly attractive, Andrew says. You can access that talent to do a lot more of the 39。s Role Jim Andrew, a senior partner and managing director in BCG39。D partners in China must learn to operate within an industrial structure quite different from their own, and take great care in selecting whom to work with and how, experts caution. MNCs are likely to find that the best opportunities for harnessing Chinesestyle innovation lie in two areas: discrete, targeted pieces of larger products and products for homemarket consumption. In this article, part of a special report on Chinese manufacturing, experts from The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Wharton look at how panies can profit from Chinese innovation, what drives this innovation, and what challenges they face in sourcing Ramp。 and mature industrial clusters ready to supply a variety of parts, ponents and subassemblies. These elements are creating a strong culture of innovation, one that panies from developed economies soon will either profit from, or pete against, as China moves beyond laborintensive, lowvalueadded consumer goods. Already, many large multinational corporations (MNCs) have set up Ramp。s Growing Talent for Innovation As a business innovator, China has a wealth of advantages. These include a huge, adaptable population with an affinity for improvisation and reverse engineering。中國的創(chuàng)新能力無疑將決定其在全球經(jīng)濟(jì)中的未來?!叭A碩找到了通過上網(wǎng)本來破壞和重塑市場(chǎng)的途徑,現(xiàn)在其他 PC廠商正在競(jìng)相下調(diào)價(jià)格來追趕市
