... the mediating effect of absorptive capacity ( AC ) and the moderating effect of resource slack. A multiple regression analysis is conducted to verify the theoretical hypotheses, using the data of Chinese A-share listed companies collected from 2012 to 2021. Findings The empirical findings indicate that AI...

.... NMA has a positive influence on strategic alliance innovation performance. Absorptive capacity refers to the ability of the focal firm to use and incorporate new knowledge effectively. It is often acquired through internal R&D activities (Cohen and Levinthal, 1990). It plays a critical...

... links between MRKT–SCM alignment and the performance of a firm, mediated by the SCR, and the role of absorptive capacity (AC) in shaping such links. Design/methodology/approach After the identification of a key capability in SCM, i.e. firms’ ability to align their’ MRKT–SCM processes and the role...

... the degree of such impact is affected by the absorptive capacity of companies. This research uses the results of a survey targeting 228 Korean exporters to identify the link between organizational agility and business performance in the global market under different degrees of potential and achieved...

...Mahmoud M. Migdadi Purpose The main purpose of this study is to empirically investigate the influence of social capital (SC) on mass customization capability (MCC) and innovation capabilities (ICs) (products, processes, services and organizational) through absorptive capacity (ACAP) (acquisition...

... capabilities in the OI–IP relationship. Findings Results confirm the indirect effect of overcoming NIHS on the relationship between outside-in OI and IP, and the indirect effect of overcoming NSHS on the relationship between inside-out OI and IP. Further, absorptive capacity moderates the indirect effect...

...Gert Human The results suggest that an alternative conceptualisation of the relationship between absorptive capacity, knowledge transfer effectiveness and transactive memory systems is indeed conceivable. This implies that transactive memory can benefit from increased absorptive capacity...

... valuable knowledge and insights for improving firm performance. However, there has been little focus on how firms improve their CRM and brand management via MAU. This study aims to draw on the absorptive capacity theory, research on marketing capabilities and marketing analytics to examine the capability...

...Yang Liu; Ping Deng; Jiang Wei; Ying Ying; Mu Tian By explicitly examining the role of knowledge transfer activities on an EMNE’s domestic innovation performance, our study advances the literature on R&D alliances and innovation management by connecting a firm’s absorptive capacity...

... is to develop and empirically test a theoretical framework examining how local network ties and global network ties affect firms’ innovation performance via their absorptive capacities. The asymmetry between local network ties (LNT) and global network ties (GNT) in terms of influences on firms...

... This paper aims to focus on knowledge transfer between the headquarters and a subsidiary of a multinational corporation (MNC). A framework with type of knowledge, absorptive capacity, disseminative capacity and tie strength is proposed. The framework is verified qualitatively and then further developed...

...? Absorptive capacity Buyer-seller relationships Innovation protection Types of customers Knowledge has largely been recognized a critical resource for developing competitive advantages, especially in environments of intense global competition and rapid technological change (Teece, 1998 ; Möller...

...Ulrich Lichtenthaler Purpose This paper aims to draw on a knowledge-based view to emphasize that internal technological and market knowledge is critical to developing absorptive capacity. Design/methodology/approach This is a conceptual paper, which draws on recent transformations...

... to both explicit and tacit knowledge exchange, a dual role for explicit knowledge exchange (i.e. as an antecedent of both tacit knowledge exchange and absorptive capacity) and absorptive capacity is a key mediator between knowledge exchange (both explicit and tacit) and organizational innovativeness...

..., and influence the absorptive capacity at the network level to generate new service innovations. Design/methodology/approach – These issues are examined through literature review and a case study. Findings – The findings suggest that individual orchestration mechanisms may be more closely connected...
