Overview

This book examines the technology that is transferred in Mexico's Silicon Valley and the role that institutions of higher education and foreign electronics corporation play in the process. Among the significant findings of this study are that the transfer has proven limited, with most of that concentrated in operative-level capabilities and cites a lack of absorptive scientific and technological capacity as a factor in this. The author then asks what are the factors hindering technology transfer in some regions and those promoting it in others.
