Abstract
This paper aims at analyzing the impact of technological relatedness between partners in R&D alliances on specific types of product innovation. After developing the conceptual framework based on organizational learning theory and dynamic capabilities, we carried out a longitudinal study of an international sample of pharmaceutical firms in order to test the hypotheses. The empirical research confirms that technological complementarity and similarity between partners influence differently on the creation of radical and incremental innovation. These evidences highlight the importance of designing a suitable portfolio of R&D alliances in order to develop different innovative capabilities.
