讲座内容:
The use of crowds to solve firms’ business problems has become increasingly popular in recent years, yet little is known about the financial outcomes of such activities. Using an event study methodology, we examine stock market reactions to a firm’s crowdsourcing activities. Results from a sample of 394 crowdsourcing events suggest that on average, crowdsourcing activities generate positive stock returns of .23 percent, which is equivalent to a $189 million increase in shareholder wealth. We also find that such returns depend crucially on the crowdsourcing strategies (e.g., task types and brand type), and firm capabilities (e.g., R&D and marketing capabilities). Our analyses show that innovation crowdsourcing has a stronger positive impact on stock returns than other types of crowdsourcing. We also find that innovation crowdsourcing and R&D capability complement each other, while marketing crowdsourcing and marketing capability substitute for one another. Overall, our findings provide important implications on how to manage crowdsourcing to yield higher financial returns.
