論題 (Topic)	"Diversification Strategy of Japan's Largest Textile Firms since the 1970s"
概要 (Abstract)	This presentation examines the different business models in the Japanese textile industry, as they started facing industry maturity and macroeconomic turbulences. It argues that the nature and magnitude of technological resource and capability endowments had decisive impacts on the direction of diversification. To this end, technology frontrunners showed two dissimilar patterns: technology-driven diversification and textile adherence leading to slow transition into non-textile markets. On the other hand, technology laggards exemplified the entry into unrelated markets, and represented the market-led diversification schemes. Panel data analysis shows that the performance effects of those strategic factors are contingent on macroeconomic environments, rather than showing consistent relationships. The potentially positive or negative effects of particular diversification strategies are neutralized in the munificent environments, as exogenous macroeconomic factors overwhelm endogenous decision-making by the management. In the scarce setting, by contrast, it is those strategic factors that influence financial outcomes. Ultimately, then, only the commitment to technology, not marketing or finance, ensured long-term profitability.
