In this study we intend to examine two case studies of standardization, Chinese character codes and the stored value card, from the perspective of increasing returns to adoption to derive the implications on industrial technology standardization in Taiwan. We also would like to know how firms could take advantage of these implications when increasing returns to adoption prevails. 1.
