Analysis of the evolution of path dependence and path creation in technological leapfrogging — The effect of the dynamic capabilities based on technological learning

摘要

With the development of science and technology, technology life cycle is constantly shortened. All kinds of emerging technologies appear constantly. Once the enterprise seizes the technology opportunities, and realizes technological leapfrogging, it gets competitive advantage. In the process of technological leapfrogging, enterprises may choose strategy of technology inheritance, or strategy of technology substitution. The process of path evolution is a process of evolution game. Based on theoretical analysis, the evolutionary game model is established. It concludes that the low order dynamic capabilities make the enterprise in locked state, while the high order dynamic capabilities are the condition of technology substitution.
