Abstract:

Vietnam has to integrate into the international economy and take part in the global supply chain. Therefore the importation of intermediate goods from foreign providers is inevitable. However, the input supplies initiative helps Vietnamese firms reduce the dependency on the foreign supplies and make productive plans actively. This paper finds the conditions that a foreign firm-a a technology owner- becomes a licensor, and a state-owned enterprise (SOE) becomes a licensee in a good intermediate market. In contrast, the foreign firm competes with the SOE in the input market and a domestic downstream firm in the Cournot fashion's final market.

Keywords:

Technology transfer; licensee; licensor; profit; social welfare.
