The Productivity Effects of Internal and External R&D: Evidence From a Dynamic Panel Data Model (2008, unknown): “This rate of return is in line with other studies that use a similar production function framework (Mairesse and Sassenou, 1991; Basant and Fikkert, 1996; Fors, 1997).”
How Domestic and Foreign Firms Differ and Why Does it Matter (2004, unknown): “Fors (1997) reports on the substantial intra-firm transfer of technology from affiliates to their parent companies and vice versa, which may be one cause of R&D-related gaps.”
What factors determine the mode of overseas R&D by multinationals? Empirical evidence (2007, background): “Fors (1996), who explored the factors explaining foreign R&D activity of Swedish MNCs, also found that the technological specialization in a particular industry in the host country has significant and positive effect.”
Foreign subsidiaries as a channel of international technology diffusion: Some direct firm level evidence from Belgium (2004, background): “Fors (1997), using Swedish data, finds that parent R&D significantly influences host output growth.”
