| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is clarifying the influences of the change of firm's boundaries with M&A on the innovation of the firms concerned and not concerned with M&A. By a statistical analysis using the survey data and a case study, we obtained the following results. (1) The merger between firms with similar business domain increases the appropriability of profits from innovation in the firms. (2) The merger between firms with different business domain diversify the technological opportunities in the firms. (3) The M&A in recent Japan tend to stimulate R&D in firms not concerned with M&A, as the market concentration ratio increases. In addition, R&D of firms not concerned with M&A tend to be stimulated as the market position is near to the firms concerned with M&A.
