It is vital for firms to acquire needed technology from various sources in order to survive and thrive in ever increasing competitive market. This paper examines the choice of technology acquisition modes and its influential factors in a Chinese high-tech firm Chang Hong. Our findings and results show that this firm has four modes of technology acquisition (technology purchasing, R&D cooperation, in-house R&D, and mixed mode) at its five stages of technology development. We also analyze factors affecting this firm´s choice of these technology acquisition modes, which includes technology capability, technology relevance, experience and environment.
