Abstract

I examine the impact of the geographic distribution of R&D activity on the quality of innovation. Through an analysis of patent data from 100 firms in the global semiconductor manufacturing industry, I find that the impact of geographic distribution of R&D on innovation quality takes an inverted-U shape and that firms are heterogeneous in the benefits derived from this geographic distribution. Results indicate that two characteristics—technological diversity of resources and intraorganizational linkages between R&D units—significantly influence firms' ability to derive benefits from increased geographic scope.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
