Use the Theory relating to Adaptation, Aggregation and Arbitrage to explain how companies from the following industries have used this theory for the pursuit of their businesses:
- Computer industry (hardware or software)
- ICT industry (Information Communications Technology
- Pharmaceutical industry
- Food / Beverage industry
- Steel Industry
- Manufacturing of heavy equipment
Students should choose 2 industries from the list above and 2 companies in each industry (4 companies in total).
I choose these two industries Computer industry (hardware or software) and Food / Beverage industry.
Suggested Structure:
-Introduction
-Body: a paragraph heading for each of Adaptation, Aggregation and Arbitrage containing discussion of ideas using your research outcomes of the 4 companies studied. OR you can focus on the industry-level analysis using the 4 companies researched. How has each industry been pursuing some or all the elements of the 'AAA' framework? Use the table below as a guide.
