网络嵌入、技术能力与大学衍生企业绩效

摘要/Abstract

摘要： 大学衍生企业的可持续成长是学术界和企业界关注的热点问题.基于社会网络理论与企业资源观,本文构建了技术能力、网络嵌入与衍生企业绩效的概念模型,并运用结构方程模型对湖南省等134家衍生企业进行了实证检验.结果发现,网络的关系性嵌入、结构性嵌入和认知性嵌入都有利于改进衍生企业绩效,但其作用程度依次降低;技术能力与衍生企业绩效正相关,并在结构性、关系性网络嵌入与绩效之间起着中介作用,而没有中介认知性网络嵌入对衍生企业绩效的促进作用.

Abstract: The sustainable growth of university spin-offs has been a hot issue in academic and business circles. Based on the social network theory and the resource-based view of the firm, the paper builds a conceptual model among network embeddedness, technology capability and university spin-offs' performance and empirically examines the relationships from 134 university spin-offs in Hunan Province etc. by using structure equation modeling. The research results show that structural embeddedness, relational embeddedness and cognitive embeddedness of network have a positive relationship with the spin-offs' performance, but their roles on the performance are in a decreasing manner; technology capability has the positive relationship with the spin-offs' performance, and it has positively mediating effect between structural network embeddedness and spin-offs' performance, it has also between relational network embeddedness and spin-offs' performance, but it doesn't between cognitive network embeddedness and spin-offs' performance.

Key words: network embeddedness, technology capability, university spin-offs' performance
