Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this chapter is to explore the effect of subsidiary
autonomy on intra-MNC knowledge transfers during captive R&D offshoring
to emerging markets. Design/methodology/approach: A framework to this
end is outlined and illustrated in relation to four cases of captive R&D offshoring
to emerging markets. Findings Subsidiary autonomy has a mainly negative effect
on primary knowledge transfer and a mainly positive effect on reverse knowledge
transfer. Newly established R&D subsidiaries in emerging markets need primary
knowledge transfer in order to build up their competence before they can add to
the knowledge level of the MNC. Gradual increase in R&D subsidiary autonomy is
thereby beneficial for subsidiary innovation performance.
