| Abstract: | This paper analyzes the role of R&D spillovers between automakers and suppliers in vertical corporate networks. To illustrate the importance of intragroup R&D spillovers, the effects of R&D competition between two vertical corporate networks are formalized. The paper uses a two-industry model in which higher R&D activities lead to an earlier expected introduction of a given innovation and are distributed across manufacturer and supplier firms within vertical corporate networks. |
