  This study examines the impact of innovation performance feedback on the outward foreign direct investment (FDI) of emerging market firms by differentiating between innovation quantity and innovation quality. It also explores the moderating role of inward FDI spillovers in local industrial environments. Using a zero-inflated negative binomial model, the findings show that: (1) the further a firm is below or above its innovation performance aspirations, the less outward FDI it will take; (2) inward FDI spillovers will strengthen the relationship between positive innovation quantity feedback and outward FDI while weakening the relationship of negative innovation quantity feedback; and (3) inward FDI spillovers will weaken the relationship between innovation quality feedback (both negative and positive) and outward FDI.

  This study investigates how the innovation output is affected by foreign divestments in International Joint Ventures (IJVs) and explores whether this impact depends on the industry-specific context of the divested IJVs. In particular, we examine the moderating role of inward technology licensing, distinguishing between licensing-in foreign and domestic technology. The conceptual model is tested with data from the Chinese Industrial Enterprise Database and the Innovative Enterprise Database. Using PSM and DID method, the findings show that (1) foreign divestments of IJVs have negative impacts on innovation output, (2) licensing-in foreign technology weakens the negative impacts, and (3) licensing-in domestic technology strengthens the negative impacts.
