Influencing Factors Of Chinese Enterprises' R&D Internationalization

With the deepening of economic globalization,liberalization and facilitation of trade and investment have been greatly developed.Meanwhile,technological advancement has reduced the cost of transnational management,communication and transportation,enabling enterprises to organize R&D activities globally.In recent years,more and more Chinese enterprises have also started their global R&D activities,choosing to expand overseas markets and get global advanced technical knowledge through R&D internationalization,to enhance their R&D capabilities and increase their international competitiveness.The internationalization of R&D is an important way for enterprises to enhance their technological strength,and it is also the only way for enterprises to effectively utilize and integrate global resources and improve their international competitiveness.Chinese companies started late in the technological field and their foundation is relatively weak.Presently,many companies still choose to directly purchase patents or follow the technology of other advanced countries to support their production,or to circumvent the restrictions of developed countries when expanding international business.Companies go to developing countries that have relatively backward technological and economic levels to avoid standard restrictions.Although these practices can bring temporary benefits to enterprises,they severely limit their future development.As a leader in China's innovation industry,Huawei has established its own global R&D network through continuous investment in R&D for more than 20 years.It has gradually developed from the lower and middle end of the global technology chain to becoming the world's leading ICT(Information Communication Technology)enterprise in the industry.It shows the importance of internationalization of R&D to enhance the independent R&D capabilities of enterprises and the competitiveness of the international market.As a successful case of enterprise R&D internationalization,studying the influencing factors of Huawei's R & D internationalization process can provide a blueprint and reference for other companies conducting overseas R&D activities.It is of great significance for enterprises to accelerate the process of R&D internationalization and improve their independent R&D capabilities.This article analyzes the influencing factors of Huawei's R&D internationalization based on the development status and global layout of it.Firstly,this analysis researches the needs of Huawei's R&D internationalization by analyzing the external environment and the competition within industry;secondly,researches Huawei's willingness to conduct international R&D by analyzing the company's knowledge management strategy;lastly,researches Huawei's international R&D capabilities and strategic options by analyzing the company's internationalization experience and R&D capabilities.As a result,the article draws conclusions and provides reasonable suggestions and inspiration for Chinese enterprises to carry out successful R&D internationalization,combined with the previous research on the overall situation of R&D internationalization of Chinese enterprises.
