Abstract
In this research, the author aims to explore the competing technologies and firms in a convergence industry. The author makes use of patents as a proxy for technology since they are not only the representative measure for technology but are also effective when formulating strategies with regard to firms. In addition, the author adopts the telematics industry as an exemplary convergence industry. In the analysis using US patents from January 2005 until November 2006, 36 major technological fields and 40 major firms are identified.
