The research focuses Taiwanˇ¦s M&A cases during 1999 to 2009 to explore the roles of technology in M&A decisions. We use the IPC to find out the relationship between technological relatedness, technological complementary, technological diversity and M&A performance in Taiwan enterprises. After analysis, the results show that there is negative relationship between technological relatedness and M&A performance. Adversely, technological diversity is positive correlation with M&A performance. The results provide useful reference for M&A decision making. |
