Abstract

[eng] Innovation and Corporate Governance in European Telecommunications Firms . In this article, the author inverses the traditional approach (does corporate governance favour innovation ?) considering how innovation influences corporate governance in the European telecommunication sector. . JEL classifications : G30, O31, L96 [fre] Dans cet article, l’auteur retourne la problématique en considérant la manière dont un choc technologique modifie les équilibres de corporate governance. Il ne s’agit donc pas de soulever la question traditionnelle (une forme particulière de corporate governance permet-elle d’innover ?), mais plutôt de montrer comment un choc impacte sur des formes spécifiques de corporate governance. Dans cette optique, l’auteur analyse les transformations de la corporate governance dans le secteur des télécommunications en Europe, en plaçant un accent particulier sur les opérateurs offrant des services de téléphonie mobile. . Classification JEL : G30, O31, L96
