Do firms know the scope of their R&D network? An empirical investigation of network awareness on French survey data

Stéphane Lhuillery

Although research and development (R&D) networks influence the innovation performance of their members, firms may not be fully aware of the scope of their network. In particular, due to cost reasons, they may not be fully informed of their “indirect ties”, ...
