International cooperation on climate-friendly technologies

Golombek, Rolf; Hoel, Michael - 2009

We examine international cooperation on technological development as a supplement to, or an alternative to, international cooperation on emission reductions. R&D should be increased beyond the non-cooperative level if (i) the technology level in one country is positively affected by R&D in other...

Endogeneous Matching in University-Industry Collaboration: Theory and Empirical Evidence from the UK

Banal-Estañol, Albert; Macho-Stadler, Inés; … - 2013

We develop a two-sided matching model to analyze collaboration between heterogeneous academics and firms. We predict a positive assortative matching in terms of both scientific ability and affinity for type of research, but negative assortative in terms of ability on one side and affinity in the...

Are ex ante and ex post licensing agreements useful instruments to lessen uncertainty in R&D?

Siebert, Ralph - 2013

Cross-ownership, R&D spillovers, and antitrust policy

López, Angel L.; Vives, Xavier - 2016

This paper considers cost-reducing R&D investment with spillovers in a Cournot oligopoly with minority shareholdings. We find that, with high market concentration and sufficiently convex demand, there is no scope for cross-ownership to improve welfare regardless of spillover levels. Otherwise,...

R&D and production behavior of asymmetric duopoly subject to knowledge spillovers

Plasmans, Joseph E. J. - 2000

We construct an asymmetri c duopolistic R&D and production behavior model subject to knowledge spillovers. This model is an extension to the symmetric model of d'Aspremont and Jacquemin (A&J (1988)) and aims to determine the cooperative and non-cooperative R&D strategies for two agents of...
