Abstract
- This paper uses a unique research design to statistically analyze the impact of inter-firm networks and publicly supported institutions on firm upgrading capabilities in emerging market societies. Our examination of the transformation of the Argentine wine industry in two provinces reveals the importance of a firm's "public-private" network. Links to other firms and institutions appear especially helpful to the extent they help the firm gain access to different communities of producers. Governments can aid upgrading and competitiveness, especially in backward societies, by building public-private institutions that not only offer supply-side resources to firms but also act as bridges across regions. ..PAT.-Unpublished Manuscript [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
