Enjoyed this piece a lot! I wonder if the other component besides the transfer of intangibles is actually tech transfer via the movement of personnel/know-how…

Thanks for reading! In practice, I think it's often hard to disentangle the transfer of intangible knowledge from the transfer of personnel. I think that's why export controls on intangible knowledge transfer are often a big issue within Universities. A very interesting book was recently released on this topic: https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/K/bo128674429.html
