Abstract
We explore how the shift in semiconductor manufacturing to Asia over the last two decades has affected South-to-North knowledge spillovers in the industry. As newer manufacturers of semiconductors move from imitation to innovation, do older manufacturers learn from their younger counterparts? Using patent citation data, we find evidence of South-North knowledge spillovers, contrasting with the traditional view of North-South competition. Index Terms- Innovation, Patents, Semiconductors, Spillovers.
