Title: | Patterns of R&D internationalisation in developing countries: China as a case | Authors: | JIN, Jun WANG, Yuandi VANHAVERBEKE, Wim |
Issue Date: | 2014 | Source: | INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT, 64 (2), p. 276-302 | Abstract: | Some developing countries are emerging as nexuses in the globalisation of innovation activities, serving as the location for crucial R&D activities from developed multinational firms (DMFs), which are headquartered in developed countries, and spawning emerging multinational firms (EMFs), which are headquartered in developing countries and conduct some of their R&D in developed countries. This paper proposes a framework and a methodology to identify international patterns of innovation at the firm-level as well as at the national level. According to a reconstruction of the R&D owner-inventor structure, we develop the analytical framework as a 3 × 3 matrix and identify three different patterns for both EMFs and DMFs in the organisation of their R&D internationalisation activities. We derive from this matrix three patterns at the national level to describe the ways how a developing country can reach the global innovation stage. We use China as a case to verify this framework. | Notes: | Wang, YD (reprint author), Sichuan Univ, Sch Business, Chengdu 610064, Peoples R China. junjin@zju.edu.cn; wangyuandi@gmail.com; wim.vanhaverbeke@uhasselt.be | Keywords: | R&D internationalisation; innovation patterns; patents; multinational corporations; MNCs; China; research and development; developing countries; global innovation | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/16761 | ISSN: | 0267-5730 | e-ISSN: | 1741-5276 | DOI: | 10.1504/IJTM.2014.059947 | ISI #: | 000333452500007 | Rights: | Copyright © 2014 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd. | Category: | A1 | Type: | Journal Contribution | Validations: | ecoom 2015 |
