Nordic Industrial Park: bridging distance across international markets

When a resource-constrained firm enters a high-distance market, it helps greatly if it can utilise a low- distance entry point.

The lure of the Chinese market has led several Western companies to venture into a context that is unfamiliar and bewildering, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) lacking the deep pockets of large multinationals. It is useful for SMEs to have a ‘bridge’ into a high-distance market. One way to accomplish this is to use a foreign-owned industrial park (i.e. a space designated for industrial use).

Consider the case of the Nordic Industrial Park (NIP) that provides a physical space for offices and light-manufacturing facilities, and a range of value-added services to set up a business in China. These include legal services (e.g. registering the company and drafting contracts), human resource management (e.g. recruitment, payroll and expat relocation), accounting (e.g. financial reporting), and information and communication technology (e.g. internet access). NIP was co-founded by Ove Nodland, a Norwegian who first came to China in 1994 to manage different ventures. Nodland learnt that even though rules were set in Beijing (the national capital and political centre of China), they were implemented by local officials – and so they mattered greatly. Over the years he invested considerable energies in building close relationships with various officials, and took care to ensure that the ventures he worked for complied with local regulations and aligned themselves with local governmental priorities. Nodland’s local guanxi (network connections) grew rapidly.

After a decade’s experience in China, Nodland realised he was well placed to help European SMEs enter China more broadly. He chose to focus on what he knew best: firms from the Nordic region (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden) setting up a base in Ningbo, a port city in Zhejiang province just south of Shanghai (the commercial centre of China) and renowned for its entrepreneurialism. Thus was born the concept of NIP in 2002, which was sold to Silver Rise Hong Kong Pte Ltd, part of China’s Yinmao Group, in 2013, with Nodland staying on as consultant. In 2015, NIP was selected by the Zhejiang provincial government as one of the first designated ‘international industrial cooperative parks’ which further strengthened its local standing. Going forward, NIP has signalled its intent to attract projects from Nordic universities and achieve an output value in excess of RMB 2bn (€280m, £224m, $364m) by 2017.

From the perspective of a European SME entering NIP, there are multiple benefits:

• Process: L ower start-up costs. NIP leverages its knowledge of the Chinese business environment by hand-holding clients through the complexities associated with starting and running a business in China, thereby allowing firms to focus their time and energies on core business activities.

• Physical environment: A familiar ambience. NIP’s architecture and design mimics Scandinavian features that set it apart from standard Chinese buildings. Not only does this give expat managers a sense of the familiar, it is also a symbolic reminder to Chinese employees that they are part of a Western organisation.

• People: A like-minded community. By virtue of being part of the largest concentration of Nordic companies in China, expat managers have the opportunity to share experiences with and pick up ‘tricks of the trade’ from other managers with a similar cultural background through hallway conversations and lunchtime meetings. Of course, entering a facility like NIP comes at a cost, but offers benefits in terms of ‘reducing distance’.

Questions

1 Consider NIP’s services in light of the CAGE framework and analyse how they may help reduce distance.

Abelina has been struggling to gain approval from her new boss, Ms Aldo, who has very high standards about even the most tiny aspects. It's a welcome change when she calls her into hes office to praise her for her work that week. Unfortunately, Abelina soon understands that Ms Aldo appreciation is mainly for the new streamlined format for reports that her assistant Joanie designed. What do you think Abelina should do in this situation?

Departing from the analysis of the case study above, please discuss:

• What does integrity mean to you?
• Do you think that work integrity is different or has different characteristics from integrity in general?
• What do you think should

Mandatory approach to the exercise: Critical thinking is expected from the answers. Critical thinking refers to the ability to analyse information objectively and make a reasoned judgment. Critical thinking involves the evaluation of sources such as data, facts, observable phenomenon, and research findings. Good critical thinkers can draw reasonable conclusions from a set of information and discriminate between useful and less useful details to solve a problem or make a decision.

Many organizations are faced with changes in the environment in which they operate. Customers are more geographically dispersed and this has had an impact on the strategy followed by organizations. Your organization has decided to look at its organization strategies and has requested your input in developing and implementing a supply chain and logistics strategy. Prepare a report detailing the levels of strategy in an organization and the process of developing and implementing a supply chain and logistics strategy. Use a diagram to illustrate your answer.

Director of Career Services and Industry Partnership Benjamin Franklin Institute of Technology

Dear Ms. Emily Luopold,

My name is Mark Griffin ​and I am co-Chief Executive Officer of C & J BIomedical Equipments. Our company creates and supplies both hospitals and clinics with imaging technology, such as x-ray machines, ​computed tomography (CT) scanners, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines.

We are writing to you because we believe that your institution, Benjamin Franklin Institute of Technology, shares our belief in facilitating student success and career readiness in technology fields. In respect to ​Biomedical Engineering Technology, Computer Engineering Technology, Electrical Technology and Electronic Engineering Technology. ​We also believe that assisting students in owning their technical skills, understanding the impact of sustainable development and also demonstrating professionalism through leadership, a strong work ethic, and teamwork, is the best way to produce the most skilled members of named technical fields.

The mission of C & J Biomedical Equipments is to create innovation and improve lives through technology advancement. At present we have several departments that focus on the different fields of technologies used to create our state of the heart healthcare equipment. ​Our reason for approaching you is that we are seeking partnerships with like-minded institutions that also have a goal of seeing more young people hold positions in the technology field. In trying to identify those institutions that share our goal it was hard to go past BFIT, which has been an integral part of educating young people in the Boston community since 1908.

Our company is seeking to supply technology hardware to improve the STEM education provided at BFIT, which I would like to discuss further. We think this arrangement would provide your institution with a real profile boost in resources; in addition, this would benefit the community through strengthening and advancing the students’ accessibility to extensive tools or
