 From Global to Metanational   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Other companies, for example UTC, may locate design centers far from its US home base, drawing on local engineering talent and market knowledge, and others, for example Corning, may support distributed R&D labs which both duplicate and extend its home base capabilities.
Further, the emergence of innovation in an established multi-national company is frequently adventitious; sometimes, as Professor Pier Antonio Abetti has argued, innovation can be protected from home base influence by something as accidental as the traffic in Tokyo which kept executives at Toshiba from knowing about the progress on the clamshell project.
If the categories "multi-national" and "metanational" are not so clean as the authors would have us believe, does this mean that they are not useful?
