“…Horizontal technology spillovers occur when foreign firms invest in domestic firms in the same industry in the same country through demonstration effects and the movement of trained labor (Caves, 1974;Fosfuri, Motta, and Ronde, 2001). Vertical technology spillovers occur through forward and backward linkages between foreign firms and local suppliers and customers within the value chain (Javorcik, 2004;Pietrobelli and Rabellotti, 2007;Pietrobelli and Saliola, 2008). These knowledge spillovers can be transferred through the supply chain (Saxenian, 1991;Breschi and Lissoni, 2001); joint ventures (Almeida and Fernandes, 2006;Lane, Salk, and Lyles, 2001); mobility of skilled labor (Cheung and Lin, 2004;Almeida and Kogut, 1999;Motta, Fosfuri, and Ronde, 1999;Kim, 1997;Greenaway, Upward, and Wright, 2002); demonstration effects (Blomstrom and Kokko, 1998;Cheung and Lin, 2004); innovation management (Aghion and Tirole, 1994;Bessant, Caffyn, and Gilbert, 1996;Cosh, Fu, and Hughes, 2004); and competitive pressure (Geroski, 1990;Dunning and Lundan, 2008;Aitken and Harrison, 1999;Fu, 2004Fu, , 2007Cohen and Levin, 1989;Symeonidis, 2001;Hu and Jefferson, 2002).…”
