This study tests whether alignment between a firm%26apos;s technology strategy and its knowledge structure impacts firm performance. We examine how the internal and external R%26D strategies align with the depth and diversity of a firm%26apos;s technology portfolio. The results show that long-term performance of a firm with high technological depth deteriorates when the firm enhances its internal R%26D intensity, but enhances when the firm increases its external R%26D alliance intensity. But in contrast, performance of a firm with high technological diversity enhances when it increases its internal R%26D intensity, but deteriorates when it increases its external R%26D alliance intensity.
