The role of scientific knowledge within inventing teams and the moderating effects of team internationalization and team experience: Empirical tests into the aerospace sector

The present paper aims at understanding whether and under which circumstances leveraging scientific knowledge helps teams to develop technologies that can be applied to diverse domains (i.e., more general purpose technologies). Specifically, the relationship between the presence of scientists within inventing teams and the generality of the technologies they create is examined. Furthermore, we asses if the degree of team internationalization and...
