As a consequence, transfer of innovative technologies is a tool commonly used to enhance a company’s development. The effectiveness of this undertaking is determined primarily by the technology recipient’s absorptive capacity which is responsible for acquiring strategically valuable technology, its effective assimilation, and using it with desired results in mind. Thus, a company should guarantee the realization of goals it sets for itself when deciding to engage in technology transfer by maintaining a proper perfection level of these specialized abilities.In this paper, the authors make an attempt to gauge the absorptive potential of finance companies operating in Poland in terms of their efficiency in transferring innovative technologies; all based on a survey. As it turns out, realization of this potential confirmed the assumptions made by the authors, hence it has been concluded that how well developed financial companies’ absorptive capacities are has an actual influence both on direct and indirect effects of innovative pro-technology activities based on external sources, which economically justifies making investments in further development of those absorptive abilities. |
