employments in MNCs after graduation like; what subgroups/clusters can be defined within interorganizational
network; what are the potential paths (accessing actors) for the information transfer and innovations
diffusion from the universities to the MNCs and vice versa; what actors and ties are the most central for
enhancing cooperation within the network.
The pilot sample included graduates of various disciplines (humanities, social sciences, finance, engineering
& computer sciences, and natural sciences) who got diploma within the last 10 years in TOP-7 of
Ukrainian universities located in different regions. The crucial characteristics of graduates was current
employment or experience of employment in the MNCs. Network affiliation data was collected through online
