A Primer on R&D Cooperation Among Firms

Endogenous Timing of R&D Decisions and Privatization Policy with Research Spillovers

“…2 EU institutions have reaffirmed their commitment to R&D policies and consequently, the budgets of the research Framework Programs (FPs) have grown from EUR 3.3 billion in the first FP, launched in 1984, to EUR 80 billion of Horizon 2020. For more details, see Miyagiwa and Ohno (2002), Marinucci (2012) and .…”

R&D cooperation, proximity and distribution of public funding between public and private research sectors

“…Indeed, alongside these funding policies, governments encourage cooperation between research groups. The benefits of cooperation in R&D are well established (see Marinucci, 2012). The reference contribution on R&D cooperation in the presence of spillovers is d' Aspremont and Jacquemin (1988) (AJ from now on), which has formed the basis of a vast and expanding literature.…”

R&D Information sharing in a mixed duopoly and incentive subsidy for research joint venture competition

“…4 Specifically, Katsoulacos (1993) and Conte, Chweizer, Dierx, and Ilzkovitz (2009) reported that the majority of RJVs supported by European RTD (research, technological development and demonstration) framework programs give firms an R&D subsidy to the participating firms if they share information. 5 Nowadays, policymakers in European and others 1 For more details, see, Miyagiwa and Ohno (2002) and Marinucci (2012). 2 The rate of R&D spillovers is usually defined as institutional and/or technological factors.…”

“…In section 4, we devise an agreement-based R&D subsidy scheme to internalize spillovers in which both firms can earn higher payoffs under the agreement on RJV. In Section 5, we discuss welfare loss and production subsidy 6 For example, Miyagiwa and Ohno (2002) and Marinucci (2012) discussed government -industry cooperation. 7 The increasing interest in mixed markets stems from their importance in regulatory reforms in the developing and transitionary economies.…”
