摘要

目的本文以组织设计理论和组织学习理论为基础,旨在研究组件技术(CT)以及组件技术与经验学习(EL)之间的相互作用对跨国技术并购整合程度(DI)的影响。设计/方法/途径本研究以 1993-2016 年间从发达经济体发起跨国技术并购的 229 家并购方企业和从新兴经济体发起跨国技术并购的 38 家并购方企业共 267 家企业为样本,采用价值链框架来衡量并购方的并购整合度,以探究组件技术(CT)以及组件技术与经验学习(EL)之间的交互作用对并购整合度(DI)的影响。研究结果首先,本文发现跨国技术并购中的CT对并购方企业实施DI的可能性产生了积极影响,这与组织设计理论相一致。实践意义研究结果表明,EL 的调节作用极大地优化了收购方企业对 DI 形式的整合实施策略的决策选择,如完全整合(结构整合)、部分整合和不整合(结构分离),这似乎对跨国技术收购至关重要。原创性/价值本研究揭示了DI对于与CT目标公司进行跨国技术并购的并购方公司的重要性,从而为国际商业战略做出了贡献。本研究解释了为什么结构整合在跨国技术并购中可能是必要的,无论其带来的干扰成本有多高,以及在哪些情况下结构整合变得不那么重要或没有必要。研究显示,因结构整合而增加直接投资的可能性取决于收购公司在东道国环境中的EL,并随着收购前的知识和东道国的EL而波动。本研究结合跨国技术并购的两个文献流,如CT和EL,揭示了组织学习理论和组织设计战略方向决策理论对并购整合实施战略的重要性。

Unleashing synergy: exploring the impact of experiential learning and component technology on integration implementation strategy in cross-border technological acquisitions

Purpose

Drawing on organizational design theory and organizational learning theory, this paper aims to examine component technology (CT) and the interaction between CT and experiential learning (EL) effects on the degree of integration (DI) of cross-border technological acquisitions.

Design/methodology/approach

Using a sample of 267 firms consisting of 229 acquirer firms who started cross-border technological acquisitions from developed economies and 38 acquirer firms who initiated cross-border technological acquisitions from emerging economies over the period of 1993–2016, this study adopts a value chain framework to measure the acquirers’ acquisition integration degree for the investigation of the effects of CT and the interaction between CT and EL.

Findings

First, this paper finds CT in cross-border technological acquisitions exerting a positive influence on the acquirer firm’s likelihood of the DI implementation, in line with the organizational design theory. Second, in view of organizational learning theory, this study finds EL and the combined effect of CT and EL to have an inverse influence on the DI.

Practical implications

The results imply that the moderating role of EL significantly optimizes decision choices for an acquirer firm for integration implementation strategies in the form of DI, such as full integration (structural integration), partial integration and no integration (structural separation), which appears to be crucial for cross-border technological acquisitions.

Originality/value

This study contributed to international business strategies by shedding light on the importance of the DI for an acquirer firm that undertakes a cross-border technological acquisition with a CT target firm. This study explains why structural integration might be necessary in cross-border technological acquisitions regardless of the costs of disruption it imposes, as well as the contexts in which it becomes less important or unnecessary. The study disclosed that the increase in the likelihood of DI because of CT depends on the EL of the acquisition company in the host country environment and fluctuates with the prior acquisition knowledge and EL of the host country. Combining two cross-border technological acquisition’s literature streams, such as CT and EL, this study enlightens the importance of organizational learning theory and theory of organization design strategic direction making on acquisition integration implementation strategies.
