Resumen:
In this paper we explore the determinants of the probability of cooperating for innovation with partners located at different distances in Argentina. Our hypothesis is that international cooperation requires stronger technological capabilities and firms? openness. Our findings largely confirm the hypotheses. Firstly, foreign firms or those that trade intensively are more likely to cooperate abroad. Secondly, skilled labour intensive firms and firms that allocate more resources to innovation activities show higher probability of forming international partnerships.
