Abstract
How could the players involved in international technology transfer operations benefit from the utilisation and management of the so-called "Boomerang Effect" (BE) of international technology transfer? This BE, initially identified only on the supplier's side, appears to be a very valuable managerial and strategic tool that may provide all the players involved in the technology transfer system with very positive outcomes. In the specific Chinese context, this concept can be used as a strategic and operational tool to enhance China's technological catching-up.
