Description This article provides new insights into how geography shapes spatiotemporal variations
in the propensity of actors from particular countries to file for non-resident patents
in specific foreign economies. Our major contribution is to show that, in addition
to bilateral exports and outward foreign direct investment, the geography of nonresident
patenting is shaped by transnational spatial dependencies: the cross-border
patenting activity of residents from one country is influenced by the prior patenting
activity of residents from third countries. We find that domestic actors from particular
countries are more likely to file for patent protection in focal foreign economies where
their regional peers and, to a lesser extent, competitors from economies with similar
export product structures have filed for a larger number of patents.
