Abstract It is desirable to penetrate deep into the dynamic relationship between intermediaryfirm interactions and absorptive capabilities in technological small firms, for the guidance to enhance firms’ absorptive capabilities.Therefore, the paper established a system dynamic model for simulating the relationships between the two via software of Vensim PLE, supported by the theoretical framework how the intermediaryfirm interactions affect on the absorptive capabilities evolution.The results reveal the firm's absorptive capabilities evolution characterized by exponential growth, and intermediaryfirm interactions play a positive action on absorptive capabilities with increasing marginal contribution.The leverage effect of the intermediaryfirm interactions on firm's absorptive capabilities increases, while intermediaryfirm interactions rise to higher hierarchy and level.There is threshold mass when intermediaryfirm interactions leverage firm's absorptive capabilities.
