This is accomplished by understanding, analyzing, manufacturing, delivering (products and services), and improving client relationships, resulting in sustainable competitive advantage (Kaplan & Norton, 2008;Ramdani, 2012) in the uncertain Brazilian environment.…”

Few studies have investigated the influence of "information capital," through IT-enabled dynamic capability, on corporate performance, particularly in economic turbulence. Our study investigates the causal relationship between performance perspectives of the balanced scorecard using partial least squares path modeling. Using data on 845 Brazilian companies, we conduct a quantitative empirical study of firms during an economic crisis and observe the following interesting results. Operational and analytical IT-enabled dynamic capability had positive effects on business process improvement and corporate performance. Results pertaining to mediation (endogenous variables) and moderation (control variables) clarify IT's role in and benefits for corporate performance.KEYWORDS | Corporate performance, information technology, dynamic capability, business process improvement, economic turbulence. RESUMO Poucos estudos já investigaram a influência do "capital de informação", através da analítica teve efeitos positivos na melhoria dos processos de negócios e no desempenho corporativo; os resultados relacionados à mediação (variáveis endógenas) e à moderação (variáveis de controle) esclarecem o papel da TI e seus benefícios para o desempenho corporativo.

“…For testing our research hypotheses we used the above data for estimating the following innovation model: INNOV = b0 + b1*DEM + b2*IPC + b3*INPC + b4*NCOMP + b5*D_SECT + b6*D_LARGE + b7*D_MED + b8*HARD_ICT + b9*SOFT_ICT i (1) The dependent variable is innovation activity (INNOV), which is quantified through a composite index equal to the sum of the standardized values (having zero average and unity standard deviation) of three variables that assess whether the firm had products/services innovation (Y/N), process innovation (Y/N) and systematic R&D activity (Y/N) in the last 3 years.…”

“…Therefore the investigation of the effect of ICT investment on various aspects of business performance is necessary. Most of previous literature in this area has examined the effect of ICT investment on the firms' financial performance (comprehensive reviews of this literature are provided in [1]- [2]). However, it is widely recognized that other aspects of firms' business performance should be examined as well, and one of them is definitely with respect to innovation, which is regarded as a critical determinant of firm's financial performance, or even survival, both currently and in the near future.…”

Firms have been making big investments in information and communication technologies (ICT) in the last twenty years. Therefore the investigation of their effect on various aspects of business performance is necessary. This paper presents an empirical investigation and comparison of the effects of hard and soft ICT investment, and also of four 'traditional' innovation drivers (demand expectation, price and non-price competition, market concentration), on the innovation activity of Greek firms. In particular, we examine from this perspective four different types of soft ICT investment in ICT structures, personnel, skills and processes.Our results indicate that while in the innovation averse Greek national context none of the examined traditional innovation drivers have a statistically significant impact on the innovation activity of Greek firms, both hard ICT investment, and three of the examined types of soft ICT investment (in ICT personnel, skills and processes), do have such positive impacts.

PurposePrevious studies have shown that the application of information technology (IT) can help break through the innovation boundaries of firms and has undoubtedly become a key enabler of collaborative innovation. These studies, however, are mainly based on theoretical analysis and case studies, and little is empirically known about the relationship between IT investments and collaborative innovation. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to empirically explore how firms' IT investments affect the firms' collaborative innovation performance. The authors also examine the moderating roles of the top management team's (TMT's) educational background and absorptive capacity in this relationship.Design/methodology/approachThe authors collected data on 2,097 listed Chinese manufacturing companies and used the ordinary least squares (OLS) method to perform regression analysis. In addition, the authors conducted robustness tests using the propensity score matching (PSM) method and the instrumental variable method.FindingsThe results show that the relationship between IT investments and collaborative innovation is inverted, U-shaped and curvilinear. In addition, the TMT's educational background and absorptive capacity positively moderate the inverted U-shaped relationship between IT investments and collaborative innovation.Originality/valueThe study's findings on the relationship between IT investments and collaborative innovation differ from previous mainstream findings that recognized a positive linear relationship. The authors' findings deepen the understanding of the dual role of IT investments. Moreover, this research helps expand the contingency perspective in IT investments and collaborative innovation research.
