While there is an extensive body of knowledge on university‐industry collaboration (UIC) for technology transfer, two salient gaps remain. First, studies UIC have predominately focused situations when the relationship established based perceived complementary needs between collaborators. However, research ‘engineered’ UIC, or has been triggered and coordinated by a third‐party, still scarce. Second, we lack proper understanding into micro‐foundations transfer process using lens social capital (SC). This necessary inquiry given prevailing conception as socio‐technical process.

The field of International Business (IB) has traditionally focused on the crossing national boundaries. In this Perspective, we argue that organizational, knowledge domain, and language boundaries are equally important for understanding translation activities in cross-border business. We integrate three kinds (organizational from Organization Studies interlingual Translation Studies) to deepen our core IB phenomena pose new research questions. introduce framework a ecosystem integrating micro perspective translating agents, meso organizational units, macro larger social linguistic contexts influence translation. This allows scholars identify but invisible requires kind multi-level been recognized as crucial taking forward offers potential making contributions both beyond disciplinary IB.
