| Summary: | The objective of this study is to propose a holistic model of inter-firm technology
transfer (TT) based on an integrated knowledge-based-view (KBV) and organizational
learning (OL) perspectives in conceptualizing the critical links between technology transfer
characteristics: knowledge, technology recipient, technology supplier and relationship
characteristics (TTCHARS) and degree of technology transfer (TTDEG) in international
joint ventures (IJVs). Since the current TT issue now is centered on efficiency and
effectiveness of technology transfer as an efficient formal vehicle to internalize foreign
technologies as compared to direct import of goods, licensing and foreign direct investment,
the advancement of the holistic model is to provide a complete view on the significant
effect of technology transfer characteristics and their dimensions on degree of technology
transfer in IJV which eventually could contribute to the increase of local companies’
competitiveness, indigenous technical capabilities, technological development, and potential
for local innovation. In the study’s model, hypotheses are developed to describe the
relationships between TTCHARS and TTDEG based on the underlying KBV and OL
perspectives. |
