This book explores the motivations of R&D foreign direct
investment (FDI) in a developed country, placing a particular
emphasis on the United Kingdom. Multinational enterprises operate
in increasingly competitive and complex environments, and the role
of R&D can be vital in the creation, adaptation or adoption of
knowledge across different foreign locations. This book offers
valuable insight into the similarity and distinction between
strategic and specific motivations of R&D FDI at the country
level, addressing a key gap in previous research on the topic.
Based on an empirical study, the authors challenge current thinking
in international business studies by shifting focus from R&D
FDI globalisation to the concentration of R&D FDI in a single
location, conceptualising the interplay of strategic and
location-specific motivations. This book is a vital read for
students, researchers and practitioners interested in understanding
the motivations behind R&D FDI decisions in the UK and beyond.
