This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research and development is no longer a headquarters function. More and more companies internationalize their R&D activities. The pros and cons of this approach are discussed in this book. The organizational alternatives for international R&D as well as the consequences that they have for decision making and performing R&D are also of great interest. Furthermore, measuring success of international R&D is a very difficult problem that is not yet fully understood. However, suggestions are made to improve present day practise. They are based on a large body of empirical research and management literature.

This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dispersion of innovative activities by Multinational Enterprises concerns today both developed and developing countries, as home or host countries, although some nations seem to be better recipients than others. A panel sample of 23 countries has been built to test two empirical questions: which drivers have the highest impact on the choices of localisation of R&D affiliates in foreign countries? And, do differences between advanced and less advanced countries exist in terms of attracting factors? The method used is a set of regressions with the share of foreign R&D expenditures as dependent variable and pull, push, policy and enabling factors have been included as explanatory variables. Main results confirm the hypothesis that some factors are more relevant than others and that these, in turn, differ between countries. In particular, developing countries are more likely to attract R&D-related investments if they can provide e.g. a good growth rate and a specialisation towards high-tech productions, while foreign firms are more willing to invest in advanced countries with factors like well developed infrastructures and a qualified and appropriate educational system.

Download or read book The Internationalisation of Business R D written by Bernhard Dachs and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has become clear that over the past few decades enterprises not only produce and sell abroad but increasingly also develop goods and services outside their home countries; a development now known as the internationalisation of business R and D. This book presents a comprehensive picture of the current state of internationalisation of R and D in the business sector. The contributors explore key patterns of the internationalisation of R and D across various countries and sectors using case studies to underpin empirical evidence. They examine the drivers of the process, revealing the impacts of R and D internationalisation on both home and host countries using both qualitative and quantitative analysis. Topics discussed include: * Why firms locate R and D activities abroad * Data availability, quality and comparability * The role of the EU and the US in the internationalisation of R and D * Country-level factors such as size, workforce and FDI as determinants of R and D internationalisation * Impacts of R and D internationalisation on home and host countries. This book will prove an insightful read for academics, researchers and students with an interest in economics - particularly the economics of innovation - business and management, and science and technology. It will also prove a valuable resource for R and D policymakers and public administrators.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growing U.S. R&D internationalization has historically been concentrated in developed countries. However, in the past few decades, the internationalization has moved toward less-developed countries (LDCs), particularly Brazil, China, and India. What location factors are making some LDCs more “inviting” for U.S. R&D offshore? To answer this first question, we constructed a panel data using secondary data from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis regarding the R&D investment made by the majority-owned foreign affiliates of U.S. parent companies in 71 countries. We then applied a Heckman two-step correction for selection bias test. The results highlight some important differences between developed countries' and LDCs' attractiveness. Based on these initial results, we conducted a detailed analysis of the determinants of U.S. R&D investments in Brazil, China, and India, which revealed that China's determinants mostly match those found in more developed countries.

And what are the implications of this trend for 'host' countries?" "The book presents important new research material, in the form of detailed case studies of India and Singapore, and offers an evolutionary theoretical basis for comprehending the processes at work.

This book was released on 1996-07-05 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past decade, foreign participation in U.S. research and developmentâ€"through acquisition of R&D-intensive businesses, links with universities, and other arrangementsâ€"has expanded rapidly. This emergence of foreign influence has drawn a mixed responseâ€"some regard the trend as a positive corollary to the expanding involvement of U.S.-owned companies in national markets abroad. Others consider it a net liability for Americans that often benefits foreign companies and their home economies at U.S. expense. There exists a large gap in expert and public understanding of the drivers, nature, and consequences of foreign participation in the nation's technology enterprise. This volume seeks to close this gap and reviews: The nature of R&D activities and how they contribute to economic development. The causes, scope, and nature of foreign involvement in U.S.-based R&D activity and the associated costs, risks, benefits, and opportunities of this trend. The merits and liabilities of policies to regulate foreign R&D participation.
