Abstract
► We model R&D collaboration networks with network-dependent indirect spillovers. ► We study which network architectures are efficient and/or stable. ► The marginal cost of collaborations and the industry size play a critical role. ► For intermediate costs, the efficient network has an asymmetric and nested structure. ► In large industries, efficient networks are not stable.
