About this book

The book is the culmination of a research effort which spanned all continents and involved a large number of research teams from both the industrialised and developing countries. The book addresses a number of key issues related to technology transfer by small and medium-sized enterprises most especially whether such companies are more effective transferors than larger transnational corporations. A key aspect of the research was the fact that firms in source and host countries were matched to assure a degree of consistency in the firm coverage and their responses.

Reviews

'It remains a useful reference volume and offers some useful pointers to further work on what remains an under-researched topic.' - Derek Miles, Institute of Development Engineering, Loughborough University
