| Abstract: | The technology-sourcing decision traditionally has examined the choice either to innovate internally or to acquire technology from outside sources. The interesting complexity of this decision requires a move beyond the simple "make-versus-buy" dichotomy. The authors seek to test factors that influence the technology decision of subsidiaries for product and process technology across the continuum of options from internal development to outsourcing. They also explore concordance between the research streams of new product development and technology sourcing. |
