there is no lack of a sense of urgency; the company knows mobile technology is upending its market.

Intel's culture has long been built around maintaining market dominance through intense internal competition, said Kim Stevenson, its chief information officer.

Now, Intel believes it needs a more collaborative culture to help it gain an edge in mobile processors.

Intel's top 25 executives gathered for a strategy discussion led by Stevenson and the head of human resources.

the need for cultural change in order for Intel to compete effectively in the emerging mobile market.

Among steps Intel took to improve communications were adding 220 video conferencing rooms, electronic white boarding,

Intel has also set up teams based on accounts not internal departments. Intel is taking small, concrete steps towards changing its culture, rather than massive, risky leaps.

The small-step strategy is one many companies could adopt when trying to transform. As one survey respondent said,

In the IT hardware category, just four companies, from Finland (Nokia), Sweden (Ericcson), France (Alcatel) and Germany (Infineon Technologies) are recorded against six in the USA (Intel, HP, Cisco, Motorola, Texas instruments

while Microsoft, IBM and Oracle combined spent ten times that amount. In addition, there were 26 companies from the USA and three from Japan spending more than €100 million, against only six in Europe.

The case of Microsoft in operating systems is an obvious example. Not surprisingly, in mobile phone technology Europe gained a leadership position also because of a first mover advantage in defining the global system for mobile communications (GSM) standard.

Luckily, computer science and the computer industry have been the object of a massive historical literature, that has highlighted several key factors.

and marketing investment by large companies such as IBM (Flamm, 1988; Chandler, 1990; Langlois, 1992; Mowery, 1996;

University research played a key role in the growth of the US computer industry. Universities were important sites for applied,

Before that, IBM had developed the automatic sequencecontrolled calculator (ASCC), known as Mark I, which was still an electromechanical machine.

resulting from on a joint effort between IBM and the University of Harvard, which was established in 1939 (Moreau, 1984.

IBM hired Von neumann as a consultant in January 1952 and started a collaboration with his organization, the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton (Pugh, 1995.

Thus in the early days of the computer industry we witness many universities building their own machines, based on Von neumann or Turing architectures.

The role of universities greatly increased after a commercial move by IBM. In 1954 IBM delivered the 650

a machine that was installed mainly for business purposes in a thousand companies. Thomas Watson Jr decided that a university could benefit from a discount up to 60%on the price of the 650

While the single most important language, FORTRAN, was invented by John Backus at IBM in 1954 (Pugh, 1995),

In December 1968 IBM was forced by the US authorities to unbundle the commercialization of software from sales of hardware products, giving origin to a separate industry,

while after the emergence of a dedicated computer industry they were committed rather to fundamental research, education, scientific advice and consultancy.

Europe During WWII all large European countries had a promising start with the computer industry and built up foundations that could evolve into industrial competitiveness.

Bull with the Gamma 60 was one of the competitors for the tender issued by the US Atomic energy commission (AEC) for a machine 100 times faster than any then existing, alongside UNIVAC and IBM.

School, Harvard university, IBM and the Bell laboratories in the USA (Williams, 2000. In the early history of computing technology Europe and the USA were equally competitive.

Zuse and IBM are special cases. From the Moore School and the University of Iowa, from Aiken and Wilkes to Algol, the vast majority of the essential steps were achieved on academic grounds.

For a large industry such as the computer industry, an overall ecology of abstract ideas, engineering capabilities, technical skills,
