Based on China's provincial panel data from 2003 to 2012, with the spatial weight matrix which includes both geographical distance and informatization level factors, this paper takes advantage of Spatial Error Model to test the relationship between regional innovation and industrial upgrading. The results show that the positive effect of regional innovation on the industrial upgrading is significant and robust. In addition, the spatial spillover effect is also an important factor that cannot be ignored for industrial upgrading. And on this basis, we also make corresponding policy recommendations from the aspects of improvement of independent innovation ability and informatization level.
This article utilizes the index of factor market distortion and the inter-provincial panel data of China’s high-tech industries during the period of 1997 to 2009 to make an empirical study of factors market distortions influence on the R&D input. The results show that factor market distortion has significantly different effects on R&D capital investment and R&D manpower input. It has an negetive impact on the R&D capital investment, but promotes R&D manpower input. Moreover, After the WTO, the negetive impact on the R&D capital investment declines, the impact on R&D manpower input changes to be insignificant. There are regional differences of factors market distortions influence on the R&D input, and enterprise features play an important role. In the enterprise of larger scale, or higher openness, or high capital intensive, the negetive impact on the R&D input is smaller. In addition, new product demands, financing environment, financial investment and intellectual property protection are all important environmental factors which affect R&D input.
In order to track the evolution of the international research on university-industry collaboration, this paper implements analyses of mapping knowledge domains based on the publication papers related to university-industry collaboration retrieved from the database of Web of Science. The results show that the characteristic of the international research of university-industry collaboration has changed significantly in the past nearly 50 years (1966-2014), these changes are mainly reflected in the following aspects: the research scope has changed from the sporadic explorative research in the past to the standardized systematical study at present; the research perspective has shifted from the simple linear model of innovation to the nonlinear fusion model of the innovation; the research hotspot has changed from the early study of university-industry collaboration and university-industry relations to the diversity of current research such as triple helix, technology transfer, the factors that influencing university-industry cooperation and the impact of university-industry cooperation. It is also found that the international research on the university-industry collaboration was mainly affected by the innovation theory of Schumpeter and the innovation diffusion theory of Rogers in the early stages but now is affected by the innovation theory of “triple helix”. This paper offers some new reference for tracking the evolution of the international research on the university-industry collaboration, and gaining insight into the knowledge base, the hotspots and development trends in this field.
As an important area of inter-organizational knowledge management research, collaborative knowledge management practice (CKMP) is considered as the key factor to achieve inter-enterprise knowledge synergy and enhance the ability of cluster innovation. However, Existing studies have failed to thoroughly investigate the relationship between CKMP and organization competitive advantage and how to guide the successful implementation of CKMP. To address this issue, current research identified its antecedents and consequences on the basis of clarifying the content of CKMP. Using surveys from 342industry cluster companies in 5 different regions in China, The empirical research found: (1)CKMP was a multidimensional construct including collaborative knowledge creation, collaborative knowledge storage, accessibility of knowledge acquisition, collaborative knowledge diffusion and collaborative knowledge application; (2)successful implementation of CKMP was influenced by three factors: the characteristics of the organization, The attribute of knowledge, the situation of collaboration; (3)different antecedents have different significant effects on CKMP: the attribute of knowledge had the strongest effect, organizational factors were relatively weaker and situational factors is weakest. (4) CKMP had the positive effect on the knowledge quality, cluster supply chain integration and organizational innovation. This paper established the integration model of CKMP before and consequence variables, which is a powerful supplement to the existing knowledge management theory
Taking scholars’ suggestion about studying alliance on a micro level, with the capacity-opportunity-willingness theory, this study tries to analyze individual’s knowledge exchange and individual’s original organization-related work performance in an R&D alliance. It finds that education-based capacity has a significant effect on individual’s original organization-related work performance, and this effect is strengthened by the network position-related opportunity, whereas the extrinsic motivation representing willingness does not play a significant role in their relations. This result is meaningful for the development of several theories, such as knowledge transfer and creation in a context of R&D alliance, alliance learning, and alliance governance.
Effective knowledge reward design is conducive to new product creativity, using 209 Chinese firms as the research objects, first test the direct effect of knowledge reward system on new product creativity, and then further analysis the moderating role of entrepreneurial orientation, Long-term orientation, and the interaction of them in the relationship between reward system and new product creativity. Results show that: knowledge reward is positively related to new product creativity; entrepreneurial orientation, and the Interaction of entrepreneurial orientation and Long-term orientation positive moderate the relationship between knowledge reward and new product creativity. However，Long-term orientation has a nonlinear, inverse U-shaped moderation on the relationship between knowledge reward and new product creativity.
The paper analyzes the internal relationship and its impact mechanism on performance of firm’s diversification strategy, puts forward some related hypotheses, and conducts an empirical test based on a sample of 110 Chinese manufacturing listed firms from the year of 2005-2013. The result shows that the synergy of two kinds of strategies constraints the development of the third kind of strategy, despite the complementary effect exists between product diversification and technological diversification, stronger substitute effect exists between product diversification and internationalization. There are significant differences among the impact of three diversification strategies on firm’s performance. The synergy between product diversification and technological diversification has a positive impact on firm’s performance, but the synergy between internationalization and other two diversification strategies is not prominent.
How to better portray the composition of innovation network, so that firms can improve the innovation capability better and quickly through resource integration, is a key problem in capability catch-up process. We explore six traditional cases of Chinese firms to investigate the relationship between in-house knowledge base and the innovation network composition and its effect on innovation performance. We address 4 kinds of knowledge base depending on the dimension of knowledge breadth and depth. What’s more, we demonstrate the matching configuration of different knowledge base types with different innovation network composition depending on the dimension of knowledge heterogeneity and knowledge quality and empirically decompose the process and logics to improve innovation performance.
