Inter-Firm technology transfer and performance in international joint venture firms
The main objective of this paper is to empirically examine the effects of two distinct degrees of technology transfer: degree of tacit and explicit knowledge on two dimensions of performance: corporate and human resource performances. Using the quantitative analytical approach, the theoretical model...

The main objective of this paper is to empirically examine the effects of two distinct degrees of technology transfer:
degree of tacit and explicit knowledge on two dimensions of performance: corporate and human resource
performances. Using the quantitative analytical approach, the theoretical model and hypotheses in this study
were tested based on empirical data gathered from 128 joint venture companies registered with the Registrar of
Companies of Malaysia (ROC). Data obtained from the survey questionnaires were analyzed using the
correlation coefficients and multiple linear regressions. The results revealed that degree of tacit knowledge, as a
distinct dimension of degree of technology transfer, has a significant effect on both corporate and human
resource performances; where its effect was much stronger on corporate performance. Similarly, degree of
explicit knowledge has shown consistent strong significant effects on both corporate and human resource
performance; where its effect on human resource performance was found much stronger than corporate
performance. The study has bridged the literature gaps in such that it offers empirical evidence on the effects of
two distinct degrees of technology transfer: degrees of tacit and explicit knowledge on two dimensions of
performance: corporate and human resource performances in IJVs. |
