摘要
本文在总结当前跨国公司R&D全球化发展特征的基础上 ,分析其行业特征和区域格局。发现不同国家的海外R&D支出的行业结构大不一样 ,如美国以医药和汽车工业为主 ,而德国以化学工业为主 ;另外发现R&D的国际化程度与产业的技术强度没有直接关系。R&D的流入 /流出主要集中在美国、日本和西欧发达国家之间 ,但一些发展中国家正在成为国际R&D投资的新兴市场。
The main indicators of the R&D Globalisation process include the growth in relative importance of both inward and outward R&D foreign direct investment; the explosion of R&D abroad; and the growing importance of patents by foreign firms abroad With exception of pharmanceuticals, the degree of globalization of R&D is not positively associated with high technology Although both inward and outward R&D foreign investment are concentrated predominantly within the Triad countries of Europe, Japan and North America, a number of industrializing economies have emerged as important hosts to R&D investment by multinational companies
