Abstract

This book addresses the context for location of global research and development (R&D) in emerging economies by multinational corporations (MNCs), and the driving forces behind this trend; performance of global R&D by companies from emerging economies; and national and corporate implications of these new trends for innovation systems. The trends have managerial implications for companies and policy implications for the emerging economies where such R&D is performed, as well as for the industrialized home countries of the companies.
