Abstract

In recent years, several Brazilian firms have conducted their R&D activities globally to be closer to the market and to gain access to know-how. This paper aims at understanding the internationalization process of R&D activities at Petrobras and its technological alliances. The study is qualitative and seeks to throw some light upon the reasons and results of decisions related to the internationalization of R&D. We hope that the findings will be useful to other companies, Brazilian or otherwise, that are undergoing similar R&D internationalization processes.
