We consider the effect that national culture has on the propensity for small, independent manufacturing enterprises to : (1) cooperate with other firms for technological innovation and (2) use equity ties in the formation of these alliances. Results from a five - country study indicate that national culture traits directly influence technology alliance formation and moderate the relationship between perceived technological uncertainty and alliance formation. Specifically, our results suggest that a resource dependence explanation for technology alliance formation is strongest for societies that maintain cooperative values and avoid uncertainty. A transaction cost explanation for the use of equity ties is strongest for societies that value individualism.
