Abstract
As a central feature of this Master Thesis, a literature review of two main topics was conducted. The two main topics researched were Innovation Networks and Knowledge Transfer.Through the analysis of existing literature, two objectives were pursued:
-
1.
To illustrate state-of-the-art theories in both fields. This includes an extensive analysis of the definitions, motivations, benefits, and barriers to firms in both areas of research.
-
2.
To identify gaps in the existing research and where this study can fill those gaps and contribute to the general discussion in both areas of research.
