Abstract

To the firms in developing country, the enhancement of technology capabiliy is realized by the technology learning. And the firm expects to attain the best learning results only if the mode of technology acquisition matches the technology capability continuously. According to the extent of firm’s R&D strength involvement, the mode of technology acquisition can be divided into three types including external purchasing, cooperative R&D, and in-house R&D from the lowest to the highest. The technology capability can be divided into three stage including technology imitation, system integration, and endogenous innovation from the evolving aspect. The three stage of technology capability should be sequentially dominated by external purchasing, cooperative R&D and in-house R&D respectively, and dynamically evolved with the growth of technology capability. Finally, the dynamical matching between technology capability and technology acquistion pattern of Ningbo Haitian Group is analyzed.
