Abstract
Empirical findings regarding the relationship between innovation and market structure are scanty (Mansfield 1984; Pohlmeier 1992). However, in fast moving industries with short product life cycles, time-to-market can be seen as a key source of competitive advantage. Hence, time-to-market issues are a broadly discussed topic, especially in the context of product development (Voigt et al. 2007).
