Phillips, W. , Johnsen, T. , Caldwell, N. and Chaudhuri, J. (2011) The difficulties of supplying new technologies into highly regulated markets: the case of tissue engineering. Technology Analysis and Strategic Management, 23 (3). pp. 213-226. ISSN 0953-7325

The core issue is how to scale-up customized scientific processes into products able to supply wider and possibly mass, markets. In tracing the development of approaches to scaling-up, the paper highlights the influence regulatory regimes have on high technology regulated products and services. The paper details the implications of two contrasting supply initiatives towards operationalizing tissue engineering, based on differences in regulatory regimes between Europe and the US.
