Effects of Technology Absorptive Capacity and Technology Proactivity on Organizational Learning, Innovation and Performance: An Empirical Examination

Association between Innovative Entrepreneurial Orientation, Absorptive Capacity, and Farm Business Performance

“…Several research works identify the positive effect of absorptive capacity on different aspects of innovation such as its innovative nature (radical and incremental), its innovative efforts (formal and nonformal R&D activities), the type of innovation (technical and administrative), and the output of the innovation process (product, process and organizational) (García-Morales, Ruiz-Moreno, & Llorens-Montes, 2007;Lane et al, 2006;Murovec & Prodan, 2009;Schmidt, 2010;Veirmeire, 2009). In order to avoid any misunderstanding concerning the general term innovation, Murovec and Prodan (2009) suggest employing innovation output as a direct measure for testing the influence of absorptive capacity on innovation in a more suitable manner.…”

The Determinants of Green Radical and Incremental Innovation Performance: Green Shared Vision, Green Absorptive Capacity, and Green Organizational Ambidexterity

“…Companies do not only need to create mechanisms to learn and exploit knowledge which can lead to innovation, but also require absorptive capacity to produce creative and innovative ideas [40,55]. Because an organisation's absorptive capacity relates to R&D resources, interaction mechanisms, and managerial processes [56], its absorptive capacity is critical to its innovative capabilities [39]. This study proposes a novel notion, "green absorptive capacity", and refers to [39] to define it as "the ability to acquire, assimilate, transform, and exploit environmental knowledge".…”

How Industrial Clusters and Regional Innovation Systems Impact the Knowledge Innovation Within the Taiwanese Science-Based Parks Firms?

“…Both concepts of industrial clusters and regional innovation systems emphasize that through the close social networked systems composed of actors from campus manufacturers, internal and external resources and information are easily obtained, diffused, and gathered to build innovation and other capabilities in campus manufacturers (Asheim 2007;Morosini 2004). Empirical results show a positive relationship existing between knowledge innovation capability and business performance, corresponding to arguments of a number of researchers (Garcia-Morales et al 2007;Koellinger 2008;Zangwill 1993).…”
