Market orientation has been established as a source of company success over the past 20 years. Jesko-Philipp Neuenburg researches the market-driving behavior i.e. the behavior of a company that is directed to fundamentally change the structure of the market and/or behavior of market stakeholders in emerging firms on a theoretical as well as an empirical level. A study of 224 emerging technology firms in Germany is presented and the results indicate that market-driving behavior has a positive influence on firm success.
