Abstract

This paper considers the Multinational Enterprise (MNE) as a differentiated learning network with subsidiaries playing a critical role in managing knowledge. Drawing on sample of 92 subsidiaries operating in Greece, this paper empirically tests the relationship between sources of technology acquired and/or generated (internally or externally) and relates them to differently strategically motivated subsidiaries.
