Tiivistelmä: | Management and protection of proprietary intangible assets such as technology and management skills is important for firms considering international expansion via joint ventures. Joint venture partners have incentives to appropriate intangible property. Some governments require foreign firms interested in selling in domestic markets to enter into arrangements that ensure the flow of technology from the foreign firms. This offers the host country partners an advantage over their foreign counterparts when it comes to sharing intangible assets. The authors present empirical evidence that transfer of intangible assets from foreign to host country partners contributes to the performance of the host country partner firms. |
