本文采用组织学习的视角，通过对中国企业在德国工业领域的并购案例的研究，探讨了中国跨国企业如何通过在发达经济体的跨国并购来组织知识转移。参与多项活动（例如，设立研发中心、合资企业、人员调配等），中国企业的最终目标是促进被收购目标与母公司之间的互动。与传统智慧不同的是，知识转移也会发生。合作伙伴双方的吸收和传播能力，沿着知识特点和跨文化问题，都会影响知识转移的效果。
This article investigates how Chinese multinational enterprises (MNEs) organize knowledge transfer through cross-border acquisitions in developed economies, by employing an organizational learning perspective, and investigating Chinese acquisitions in the German industrial sector. Engaging in several activities (e.g., establishment of R&D centers, joint ventures, and staff deployment, etc.), Chinese enterprises ultimately aim for stimulating the interaction between the acquired target and the parent company. Challenging the conventional wisdom, knowledge transfer also happens reciprocally. The absorptive and disseminative capacities of both partners, along with the knowledge characteristics, and the intercultural issues, moderate the effectiveness of knowledge transfer.
