Description and Table of Contents
Description
The book introduces a unique and innovative perspective for the study of international business networking. In contrast to the standard construction of models for optimal strategic decision-making, the essays in this book emphasise interpretation, learning by doing, trust and co-operation in the international business community. The editors focus upon business relationships within and between firms as well as the importance of middle management in the international arena.

- Chapter 5 1International licensing is defined here as a form of external production where the owner of technology or a proprietary right (licensor) agrees to transfer this to an un-affiliated (no ownership connection) firm in another country which is responsible for local production (licensee). In the simplest legal form a licence is the right to make use of, inter alia, a trade mark, a patent or know-how for a fee. It is assumed here that licensing involves actual transfer of technology.
