| Tiivistelmä: | Research joint ventures (RJVs) usually face technical uncertainty, their expected cost typically depending on the know-how disclosed by the partners. However, the partners have little incentive to share their know-how when they are simultaneously competitors in other markets. In this setting, the authors show that sometimes profitable RJVs do not start when the disclosure of know-how is contractible, and characterize the incentive contracts when they exist. The authors also analyze RJVs as an alternative to licensing contracts for the transmission of know-how. |
