Business Models in the Software Industry: The Impact on Firm and M&A Performance

The relevance of software business models has tremendously increased in recent years. Markus Schief explores opportunities to improve the management of these models. Based on a conceptual framework of software business model characteristics, he conducts large empirical studies to examine the current state of business models in the software industry. These data then serve as a foundation for statistical analyses of business models' impact on firm and M&A performance. Finally, the author develops a software business model management tool.
