المستخلص: The main purpose of this research is to examine the effects of tacitness of technology, transferor's size, transferor protectiveness, transferee technical absorptive capacity and the protection of intellectual property rights in host country, on the choice of a Technology Transfer (TT) mode by Multinational Corporations (MNCs). This is examined in the context of MNCs working in Egypt in three industrial sectors: food and beverages, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. The Resource Based View (RBV) is taken as a context of application. Results indicate that complexity of transferred technology and transferor protectiveness are the factors affecting TT m-ode choice; however, hypotheses related to transferor's size, technology codification, technology teach ability, transferee absorptive capacity and protection of IPRs in host country are not supported. The salient findings of the present re-search provides evidences to suggest that complexity of technology is more related to the pharmaceutical industry than chemical and, food and beverages industries. However, the presence of IP-Rs laws in host country proved to be related to the chemical industry and not relating to the pharmaceutical and food and beverages industries. Other variables proved to be irrelevant. The present study is one in a series of studies examining the role played by MNCs in Egypt.
