I argue that the linkage - information propensity of firms is explained by simultaneously examining both inducement and opportunity factors. Drawing upon resource - based and social network theory literatures I identify three forms of accumulated capital - technical, commercial and social - that can affect a firm's inducements and opportunities to form linkages. Firms possessing these capital stocks enjoy advantages in linkages formation. However, firms lacking these accumulated resources can still form linkages if they generate a radical technological breakthrough. Thus, I identify paths to lingkage formation for leading as well as peripheral firms. I test these arguments with longitudinal data on technical collaborative linkages in the global chemicals industry.
