Özet
Global automotive industry is on the verge of a significant transformation intothe transition to electrified transportation. This transition affects not only the automobilesupply chain but also the battery manufacturing because batteries constitute an importantpart of electrical cars’ production. Therefore, various manufacturers and countries are notonly racing but also collaborating for battery manufacturing to be ahead of the technologyrace and hence improve their economic competitiveness and innovation capability. The aimof the study is to reveal the evolution of electrical vehicle battery manufacturing industrythrough the relationships between battery suppliers and electrical auto-makers by using thenetwork analysis for 1997-2019 period. Another aim of the study is to investigate the role ofthese inter-firm relationships on determining the main actors of the electrical vehicle batterymanufacturing industry. The study may have important implications to foresee the future ofindustrial actors belonging to battery manufacturing and automobile industry requiring bothhigh level of innovation in the context of electrical vehicles.
