Abstract

Based on the important impact of technology transfer on the firm, this paper discusses in detail how technology transfer affects the productivity of enterprises. At present, some research results preliminarily show that in areas with high level of economic development, the impact of enterprise technology introduction on its productivity is more significant. There is still a lack of specific literature on the impact of time factors on the relationship between enterprise technology transfer and enterprise productivity. This paper further discusses the relationship between technology transfer and the firm productivity by introducing two external factors: economic development level and year time. This study constructs a multiple regression model, which tests the impact of technology transfer, region, year and countries with different development levels on firm productivity. The research shows that technology transfer plays a positive role in promoting firm productivity. Compared with developed countries, technology transfer has a more significant impact on the productivity of developing countries; At the same time, there are heterogeneity effects in different countries and years. This paper only analyzes the impact of technology transfer between different countries on firms, which has practical significance for the future study of the impact of technology transfer on enterprises in various industries.
