Abstract
International alliances facilitate learning among firms by providing access to complementary knowledge embedded in different countries, yet we do not know how the partnering firms' distinct national contexts shape their learning in alliances. This study brings together research on learning in alliances and research on national innovation systems to examine how innovation policies in the respective home countries of the focal firms and their partners can increase the effectiveness of knowledge acquisition in alliances. Our analyses indicate that supply-side innovation policies in the focal firms’ home countries and demand-side policies in their partners’ home countries increase the focal firms’ knowledge acquisition from their partners.
