Abstract: As market competition becomes increasingly fierce, in order to maintain a leading position in the industry, companies must enhance their core competitiveness to gain priority discourse power in the market. Corporate mergers and acquisitions are the act of acquiring property rights of other legal entities through certain economic means on the basis of equality, voluntariness, and equal compensation. They are a major form of capital operation and management for enterprises. This article aims to study the impact of mergers and acquisitions on technological innovation in enterprises, by analyzing the financial statements of enterprises and exploring the impact of mergers and acquisitions on their main business. Research has found that mergers and acquisitions are a business tool that can effectively enhance a company's technological level without increasing profits, while using less time cost.
