Foreign Ownership as a Neglected Factor in Regions’ Smart Specialisation Exports

Abstract: A region can internationalise in various ways. The question is what type of internationalisation at regional level can be regarded as “smart” and what role should be played in it by foreign owned entities (FOEs)? The paper aims at identifying the role played by FOEs in NUTS-2 smart specialisations’ (SS’s) internationalisation through exports. With the use of a set of PCSE regressions, the paper depicts the role of FOEs in creating SS-compliant exports against the background of their influence on total… Show more

“…The contribution that foreign investors can make to boost the comparative advantage of the host country depends on the share of foreign investors in the host country's exports, the existing capabilities and the policy promoted by the host country (Panait and Voica 2017;Davidescu et al 2018;Simionescu 2018). In addition, companies with foreign capital can be important regional players of smart specialization exports of Central and Eastern Europe countries (Nazarczuk et al 2020).…”

“…(2) Diversification allows better transfer and dispersal of external shocks in different directions (sectors and branches) of the economy, contributing to a faster economic recovery and faster adaptation to changed conditions. This is also confirmed by the analyses of Nazarczuk, Umiński and Jurkiewicz [37] (p. 830); (3) A high rate of economic growth alone is not sufficient to ensure an adequate level of economic resilience. What is more important is the rapid and effective transformation of the economy, e.g., by adjusting the structure of production to new conditions and reinforcing scientific and technological innovation.…”

“…Discussing the results of our study, it should be emphasized that there is a significant amount of work in this area. Take even the research of Nazarczuk et al [13], and Dziembała and Talar [14], which considered SMART specialization of the region as part of SMART management. SMART specialization covers a layer of work related to the reasonable choice of the type of economic activity that in modern conditions is the most promising for the region, as it has the greatest resource and innovation potential, the implementation of which will increase the competitiveness of the territory and significantly improve the level and quality of life of the population.…”
