Chapter 7 in Developing Countries as Exporters of Technology, 1982, pp 48-51 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In itself, the sale of engineering consultancy services abroad is an almost purely disembodied form of technology export. The nature of the activity is such, however, that it is almost bound to lead to the exports of associated equipment from the home country, since industrial consultants usually form a direct link between the investor and the equipment supplier.1 We shall not, for lack of data, go into this aspect of engineering consultancy, but confine ourselves to the evidence on consultancy sales as such.
