| Tiivistelmä: | This paper develops a model of R&D collaboration with individual firms carrying out in-house research on core activities and undertaking bilateral joint projects (herein as: j-pts.) on non-core activities with other firms. Developed are conditions on the firm profit functions under which R&D investments in different firm projects are complementary. It is shown that this condition is met by standard price and quantity setting oligopoly models. The relation btw. the number of j-pts. and investments and profits is explored. In this context, a second aspect of complementarity is identified: Equilibrium investments in in-house and in j-pts. are increasing in the number of projects. Yet, it is found that an increase in number of j-pts. of all firms lowers collective profits, which suggests the presence of excessive incentives for research. |
