| Tiivistelmä: | This article investigates empirically the determinants of offshore location choice between country clusters. Based on a dataset of 1722 R&D projects by MNEs located in developed and emerging countries, the effect of home and host country, industry, and company level variables on choice of location are examined. At the regional level, results indicate that the R&D pay difference and knowledge infrastructure difference between home and host countries, the amount of science and engineering talent and political risk level of host countries are important determining factors. At the company level, experience of foreign R&D projects and earlier experience of research in the host country are found to be important location determinants. |
