Abstract

One of the most remarkable phenomena of recent times is that a large number of firms from emerging economies have come to define and dominate new markets and enter the class of global innovation leaders. Firms that once specialized in cheap but high-quality substitutes (e.g. Brazil’s Embraer), or those that adopted fast second mover strategies (as the one followed by Korea’s Samsung), or firms that offered outsourcing services (for instance, India’s Wipro) are now firmly at the core of the global productivity and innovation frontier. In addition, many small and medium sized local firms that started as exporting joint ventures have moved abroad on their own account.
