Effectiveness of R & D Consortium for Industrial Growth in the Globalizing Economy - A
نویسنده
چکیده
R&D Consortium is occupying the interest of policy makers as a means for industrial growth. One of the typical example is the semiconductor industry, in which many countries have formed consortia in the late 1980's. Out of these nations, the United States and Korea industries have (re)gained competitiveness in terms of world market share. However, in order to understand the role of consortia in these competitiveness changes, the mechanism of technological development for industry's growth should be recognized. By assuming that technological development lies in its industrial structure and technological linkages, which connect firms both vertically and horizontally and both through non-proprietary and proprietary technology exchanges, this thesis analyses the relationship between the changes of competitiveness and those of technological linkages, and shows that, in order to be effective, consortia should be organized so that the technological linkages that they create will enhance the growth pattern of industry, which may be based on its industrial structure. Based on this fact, this paper recommends some possible amendments for a Japanese new semiconductor consortium. Thesis Supervisor: Alice H.
