World Investment Report--CHAPTERIV R&D BY TNCS AND DEVELOPING COUNTRIES(PDF 39)简介开始 TNCs are playing a major role in global R&D, not only through activitIEs in their home countrIEs but also increasingly abrOAd. The internationalization of R&D is not a new phenomenon. What is new is its faster pace in recent years and its spread to developing countrIEs (albeit to only a few, mainly in Asia). Moreover, R&D activities in developing countrIEs are no longer aimed at adapting technologIEs to local conditions only; they increasingly involve “innovative” R&D, including developing technologIEs for regional and world markets. At the same time, TNCs from developing countrIEs are themselves investing in R&D abrOAd, primarily in order to access advanced technologies and research capaBIlitIEs in developed countrIEs, as well as to adapt products to new markets and tap sources of specialized expertise in other developing countrIEs. This chapter maps these trends. A. TNCs are dominant R&D players TNCs account for a major share of global R&D. Indeed, with $310 BIllion spent in 2002 (United Kingdom, DTI 2004), the 700 largest R&D spending firms of the world – of which at least 98% are TNCs1 – accounted for close to half (46%) of the world’s total R&D expenditure and more than two-thirds (69%) of the world’s business R&D (annex table A.III.2).2 Given that there are an estimated 70,000 TNCs in the world (annex table A.I.8), this is a conservative estimate. It confirms earlIEr findings that in the mid-1990s TNCs already accounted for a very large share of the R&D expenditure of the Triad (Gassmann and von Zedtwitz 1999).
