Figure 5.
The diagram presents a structured model distinguishing two domains: Within net on the left and Beyond net on the right. The central focus is on how knowledge-related constructs influence the achievement of broader network goals, represented through four propositions. At the top left, a box labelled 'Net governance' explains that formal and informal governing groups establish inner and outer nets. An arrow labelled Prop. 1 connects this to Beyond-net use and development/Realisation of net goals at the top right, suggesting that governance directly influences goal realisation. Beneath governance, a box titled Knowledge distance notes that knowledge must be neither too similar nor too distant to be useful. This box is linked to Knowledge creation/exchange in net with an arrow labelled Prop. 2. The creation/exchange box outlines limited or absent knowledge creation, exchange within the inner net, and transfer to the outer net. From this central box, another arrow labelled Prop. 3, leads rightward to Knowledge contingency, which distinguishes between knowledge exchange (potential for development) and knowledge transfer (used but not developed). This is further linked upward to Beyond-net use and development. At the bottom, Knowledge engagement describes how belief in the business revitalisation network cause can mediate contingency. An arrow labelled Prop. 4 connects this box to Knowledge contingency, showing that engagement influences whether knowledge becomes developed or simply transferred.Summary model
