Abstract

We analyze the effect of different external technology sourcing modes on the creation of radical innovation in companies. As prior research has indicated that exploration consists of looking beyond both organizational and technological boundaries, we also include the role of technological distance between the partnering firms as well as the role of technological newness. In particular, we e ' xamine how they affect the relationship between external technology sourcing and the creation of radical innovations - proxied by pioneering technologies. The results indicate that strategic alliances and corporate venture capital investments have a positive effect on the generation of pioneering technologies, whereas the effect of M&As is found to be negative. Additionally, the impact of these governance modes on the creation of radical technology is affected by the spanning of technological boundaries. |
