Friday, November 18, 2022 - 14:00 to 16:00

Niels le Duc

The PhD dissertation seeks to analyze the significance of resource commitment to Research and Development (R&D) units of Multinational Enterprises (MNEs). More specifically, it pursues three inquires, viz. to uncover the determinants of resource commitment to MNE R&D units, to discern the effects of different resource commitment positions on an R&D unit's access co-location advantages, and to assess the number and nature of an R&D unit’s innovative outputs. The results demonstrate the importance of adopting the resource commitment concept to the study of MNE R&D activities and provide scholars with a better understanding of MNE dispersed R&D behavior.
