Resumo(s)
In this chapter the research method consists on literature review crossing conceptual theory references with empirical research focusing on different studies in terms of
international, national and regional-local scale analysis. International trade increased substantially after the Second World War. First efforts were made to integrate the several
economies and bilateral and multilateral agreements multiplied. This induced the borders of many countries to open up to the free movement of goods, creating vast economic
spaces without trade barriers. The post-war period was also characterized by greater dynamism in the internationalization of capital. On the other hand, non-tariff measures
were put in place mainly since the 1980s, such as unilateral quality regulations and multilateral, bilateral agreements restricting trade in certain products and defensive industrial policies. Also, from the 80s onwards, the globalization of transnational companies' strategies became more prominent. In terms of project internationalization, cross-regional knowledge integration positively impacts innovation quality, and distributed R&D is a moderator for innovation quality and cross-regional knowledge integration. Cross-unit integrative mechanisms are of central importance in order to achieve superior innovation quality in multi-unit organizations. In terms of internationalization of organizations, a raising number of transnational firms have showed the role of internationalization in their innovation performance, and have been developing innovation capabilities by leveraging diverse innovation resources inside and outside of firms’ home countries. Considering pre, entry and post-internationalization, innovation capacity is one of the outcomes from R&D internationalization, focusing on companies which are characterized by complementary research capabilities, learning capacities and that have strong existing research activities in their underlying technologies.
