Description
Summary:This paper analyses standard-setting coalition dynamics in video formats wars. We study the behavior of actors from several industries joining or leaving format standard-setting coalitions. Our research is based on a cross-analysis of standards literature and secondary data from Internet sites. Our analysis shows that the presence of major actors from various industries connected to the format business ecosystem, the presence of rivals, and the number of actors (size) deeply influence coalition success and can lead actors to leave one coalition for another.
