Chapter 5 in Technological Capabilities in Developing Countries, 1998, pp 125-149 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The previous chapter showed that modern fermentation industries operating in Mexico in the areas of pharmaceuticals and chemicals (second generation bioprocessing) performed well in terms of operational efficiency. Companies were able to master modern imported technologies; however, they lack in-house core-scientific capabilities. Thus, the question remains whether it is necessary to go beyond good absorptive capabilities and acquire more advanced capabilities in bioprocessing industries affected by BT. This question can be addressed in two ways:
