Operating Modes and Performance: US High-Technology Ventures in China

Mark Cannice and John D. Daniels

Chapter 6 in Management and Organizations in the Chinese Context, 2000, pp 157-184 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter develops a theoretical model of optimum entry mode choice that is then modified through examination of 15 US high-technology entries into China. The model is based on foreign operations’ motivation theory, dominant logic theory, technology transfer cost theory and options theory. It is then linked to performance through contingency theory. The final adapted entry model proved effective in predicting the sample firms’ Chinese venture performance.
