This paper investigates strategic opportunities for film festivals in a digital film business, with emphasis on Göteborg international film festival and the Swedish film Industry. Using a theoretical framework of strategy analysis, the film value chain is examined with special regards to disruptive technology, and the film festival's unique resources are linked to Industry structure. It is shown that relationships between actors and across sectors are crucial features of the film Industry, and hence a network perspective is added to the theoretical framework. Barriers to entry are shown to be relatively low in all sectors except the cinema market, and it is proposed that film festival's could expand into digital distribution, taking advantage of brand strength, customer loyalty and knowledge of Industry. The study adds to the mounting research on film festival practice and its significance for marketing and distribution in the film Industry, and highlights the emergence of strategic openings in destabilized networks..

This thesis concerns the control of outsourced interorganizational buyer-supplier relationships in the low-price fashion Industry. A qualitative case study has been performed on two supplier relationships of a low-price fashion company. By identifying specificities of the Industry and relating them to control problems and their implications on control solutions, the thesis has established a relation between Industry specific characteristics and the way companies in the Industry control their supplier relationships. The analysis is based on a theoretical framework created by Dekker (2004). Amongst other factors, the difficulty to define, quantify and measure the design variables of a fashion good, the high heterogeneity between individual products and the difficulty to predict the trend based demand, create high coordination requirements as well as appropriation concerns solved through extensive formal control.
