Abstract: Abstract A comprehensive review of the existing literature on technological capabilities and sources of supplier learning reveals two shortcomings. First, insufficient attention has been paid to the evolutionary dynamics of firm-level learning trajectories, especially those of small developing country firms towards the bottom of the technological ladder. Second, the literature has failed to integrate lead firm and supplier perspectives in shaping supplier learning. This book therefore addresses the following two research questions: how did local suppliers’ capability evolve over time, and why did the capability building trajectories evolve in the ways they did?
