Multinational Strategic Alliances
For this assignment, you will create a strategic alliance case study. You will begin by choosing two companies that are currently in a strategic alliance (i.e., have entered into an agreement to share resources for a specific project which is mutually beneficial). At least one of the companies must be involved with multinational e-commerce. An example would be Starbucks and Barnes and Noble. Barnes and Noble licenses the right to sell Starbucks coffee in their Barnes and Noble cafés. Do not use these two companies, but look for other partnerships similar to this. You will be looking at these multinational companies with e-commerce and alliances in mind, so please remember the importance of the associated strategies and structures. Include the following components in your case study.
- List the two companies, and share a brief description of their alliance.
- In addition, note how they have designed and managed this relationship/alliance (e.g., formal, informal, joint venture).
- Examine the countries where these companies do business. Are there any cultural barriers or language differences?
- Does either company have multilingual websites tailored to the countries where business is conducted?
- Describe what you think are the greatest benefits of the alliance for each company.
While a simple Google search of multinational strategic alliance examples will turn up articles with companies, remember that you must use reliable sources for your paper. You may also use reliable websites, such as the company’s web page. The CSU Online Library has several databases that are good starting points for your research.
- Mergent Online
- Business Insights: Global
- Business Source Ultimate
- ABI/INFORM Collection
- IBISWorld
Your completed case study must be at least two pages in length. You are required to use at least two outside sources, one of which may be your textbook. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying APA citations.
