| Tiivistelmä: | In order to explain why some innovation project teams require frequent face-to-face interactions to efficiently co-create new technologies, while others don't, this paper combines the concept of 'technological modularity' with the concept of 'brokers'. Using a comparative case study analysis of two distributed product-development projects in the European software and telecommunications industries, the explanation is examined. The case study projects included several geographical sites in Norway, Germany, Greece, England and the Netherlands with various communities of practice related to a number of distinct technological specialisations. Participative observations and 40 in-depth interviews were used. |
