Analysis Of Influencing Factors Of Knowledge Transfer Between Enterprises In Global Value Chains

As economic globalization intensifies, business links of companies between different countries are closer according to resource endowment of the international division of work. This provides firms in developing countries a historic opportunity to use the advantage by accepting the transfer of knowledge from developed country firms to access knowledge and ability, but this process was not sailing smoothly. In the global value chain perspective, developing country firms use the comparative advantage to enter production and processing section, but the comparative advantage does not converted to competitive advantage automatically, and even made the formation of low-end value chain lock. Therefore how the low-end firms in developing countries break the lock and improve the knowledge innovation is a serious problem.From the perspective of knowledge transfer between international enterprises, according to the actual situation of the international division of work and combined with the theory of global value chains to study this issue,this paper provides a new perspective and analytical framework. First, this paper summarizes the existing theories to construct the influencial factor analysis model of knowledge transfer between enterprises under the global value chains, qualified the element of GVC governance and makes relevant assumptions. Secondly, through interviews and surveys to obtain data from the export processing enterprises, then use the test of reliability and validity to make data reduction, use main effect regression analysis to determine the effects of knowledge transfer between enterprises under the GVC, use the regulation and control variables to measure the source and acceptance of corporate attributes on the effect of knowledge transfer under different circumstances.Finally get the following conclusions:(1) The effects of greater impact on knowledge transfer for domestic enterprises in global value chains is external factors, especially the impact from the leader. This is slightly different from the traditional effect factors of knowledge transfer, the role of external effects of economic globalization significant amplified, indicating that in the global division of work developed country companies hold the right of the global value chain governance and dominance in the value chain which reflected in the income distribution;(2) The attribute of knowledge plays an opposite role in the GVC knowledge transfer. The attribute of knowledge have a positive effect on the impact of the transfer, the more complex and tacit of knowledge, the better effect of the transfer. This is different from the traditional knowledge transfer;(3) When developing countries lies in cross-value chains, the effect on knowledge transfer has a double nature. On the one hand, cross-value chain is of positive regulation to the recipient ability, lying in more cross-value chains, the more absorptive capacity will increase the effect of knowledge transfer; On the other hand, cross-value chain is of passive regulation to the source sending willing, lying in more cross-value chains, the less sending willings will increase the effect of knowledge transfer.(4) The leader will be promote or restrain the process of knowledge transfer in different conditions. Leaders will control the process of knowledge transfer according to the market conditions and supplier capacity. Capacity of the market supply is of passive regulation to the source sending willing, the stronger of the supple capacity, the less effect of the knowledge transfer. Differences of suppliers selling capacity will lead in a significant difference for leaders willing to transfer knowledge.
