Research Abstract |
This paper presents an empirical analysis on how changes that occur with R&D activities after an M&A, which are regarded as principal internal growth factors, are related to corporate performance. In so doing, focus is placed on the mode in which corporations conducted M&As and the changes that occurred with the R&D environments following the M&As. Changes in determining factors for innovations that can be gained through the implementation of an M&A are subject to the effects of the implementation mode of an M&A, and whether such changes can be embraced in an appropriate manner, leading to the growth of a corporation, depend on the responsive capability of the R&D departments of the corporation concerned. Since outcomes are big different whether a corporation selects concentration of resources or de concentration, the managements in R&D department are a key part of Post-M&A.
