This book grows out of a five-year collaborative research project
undertaken by the authors in East Asia. They have worked with firms
and institutions in Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia, to
inquire into the micro-processes of firm-level organizational
learning that underpin technology leverage in an industry such as
semiconductors. The processes investigated are not specific to
microchips, but can be seen working in one knowledge-intensive
sector after another. Mathews and Cho argue that indeed these are
the processes that will shape industrial evolution in the
twenty-first century, not just in East Asia but in the developed
world as well. Tiger Technology concludes with an important
observation - that wealth can be generated just as much through
management of technology diffusion as through conventional concerns
with innovation, provided the institutions of leverage are
carefully constructed.
