In this study, the impact of business process digitalization on technology transfer intensity is examined, with inter-organizational collaboration as the mediating mechanism. Data collected from 211 firms in Vietnam shows that: (1) digitalization positively influences inter-organizational collaboration, (2) inter-organizational collaboration positively affects technology transfer intensity, (3) the effect of inter-organizational collaboration on technology transfer intensity is strengthened when technology commercialization potential is high, and (4) the effect of digitalization on technology transfer intensity is mediated by inter-organizational collaboration. These findings highlight the importance of considering technology commercialization potential as a critical factor in technology transfer, and managing its interaction with inter-organizational collaboration to maximize the benefits of technology transfer. The study provides practical implications for technology firms aiming to enhance their technology transfer outcomes.
In this study, we explore the impact of business process digitalization on technology transfer intensity through the mediating mechanism of inter-organizational collaboration. Using data collected from 211 firms in Vietnam, we find that: (1) digitalization positively influences inter-organizational collaboration, (2) inter-organization collaboration positively affects technology transfer intensity, (3) the effect of inter-organizational collaboration on technology transfer intensity is amplified when technology commercialization potential is high, and (4) the effect of digitalization on technology transfer intensity is mediated by inter-organizational collaboration. These findings suggest that technology commercialization potential is a critical moderating factor that needs to be considered in the context of technology transfer, and its interaction with inter-organizational collaboration should be carefully managed to maximize the benefits of technology transfer. The study provides practical implications for technology firms seeking to enhance their technology transfer outcomes.
