Introduction: Research works haven’t yet shed much light on the performance of the location choice of multinational companies. The aim of this publication is to highlight the link between the transfer of knowledge flows and the location of a multinational company. Methodology: We put forward a conceptual approach allowing to formulate the equations of a mathematical modelization of its consequential performance. Results and Discussion: Our research has led us to highlight some types of managerial behaviour which will ensure the location performance within a cluster. Conclusion: We have shown that the embedded knowledge is very important for the location choice of a multinational company. We concluded model for this location choice.
