| Abstract: | Although the globalization of industrial R&D processes has increasingly attracted management scientists and considerable work on R&D internationalization has been done since the 70s, important problems in organizing geographically distributed R&D sites have not yet been resolved. This analysis is based on 165 interviews in 31 technologically-based multinationals from Switzerland, Germany, USA, and Japan conducted between 1994 and 1997. The authors describe the extent of R&D internationalization, its key drivers and principal impediments. |
