In　recent　innovative　trends,　one　of　the　most　notable　features　is　technological　convergence.　The　technological　convergence　of　information　technology　(IT)　and　biotechnology　(BT)　is　important　for　our　social,　science,　and　lives.　However,　many　studies　focused　on　the　convergence　of　IT　and　BT　only　from　the　standpoint　of　two　technologies,　such　studies　may　miss　some　interesting　information.　To　address　this　limitation,　we　use　patent-based　association　analysis　to　explore　technological　convergence　of　IT　and　BT.　The　contribution　of　this　paper　is　that　it　provides　evidences　for　the　convergence　of　IT　and　BT　from　two　or　more　technologies,　not　just　two　technologies.　This　gives　managerial　implications　for　each　sector　of　IT　and　BT.　©　2015　IEEE.
