R&D Projects are characterized by high technical and economic uncertainty. And their execution carried out a learning process, although its aims were achieve the results planned. Results from a sample of 71 Spanish firms evidence that best practice in R&D project management promote the innovation in two ways. The purpose of practices is positively related to absorptive capacity of knowledge (CAC) in the organisation, and in turn, CAC affects the success of R&D projects.

The collaboration for developing research and development (R&D) projects highlights the importance to access new external knowledge. Drawing from a mixed-methods ap- proach in a sample of projects carried out by Spanish firms, our key findings show that every project’s dimension of absorptive capacity is related to collaborative performance in different ways. Organisations with capability difficulties to transform external knowl- edge enhanced their R&D projects’ outcomes by collaborating more intensively. However, it is the ability to exploit that external knowledge into innovation which could be the key to obtain outcomes and support to R&D programs. The regional particularities have showed new ways to collaborate due to the innovation culture in the Middle Ebro Valley.
