Abstract:     With the explosive development of emerging technologies, research on the adoption of innovation technologies by firms has attracted both practical and academic attention. Despite the increasing number of studies on organizational innovation adoption, a systematic review of this body of knowledge is still lacking in China. Through a comprehensive review of the organizational innovation adoption literature published in 15 top foreign management journals over the past 25 years, this paper systematically summarizes the following research contents:
     （1）Clarifying the conceptual connotation of organizational innovation adoption. Organizational innovation adoption can be understood as the result of the diffusion of organizational innovation. Specifically, the innovation supply side generates innovative technologies, products, services, and models through incubation, collaboration, and imitation. Through innovation diffusion, the innovation demand side experiences innovation perception, the formation of an adoption attitude, internal evaluation, and adoption decision-making to adopt innovation. In this paper, organizational innovation adoption is defined as the behavior of multi-stage adoption and assimilation of new technologies, new products, new services, and new models driven by technology and market. This behavior is an important means to improve corporate performance and gain competitive advantages in the context of technological change.
      （2）Analyzing the theoretical foundation of organizational innovation adoption. The existing theoretical basis includes innovation diffusion theory, institutional theory, resource-based theory, and high-level echelon theory. The theory of innovation diffusion has been widely used to explain the acceptance and adoption behavior of new policies, emerging technologies, and new products between and within enterprises，future studies should distinguish the differentiated effects of innovation adoption among enterprises when considering innovation diffusion. Institutional theory is mainly used to explain how institutions affect the design and adoption of innovation between or within organizations, as well as the consequences of adoption, future studies should further explore how enterprises can maintain differentiated competitive advantages under the same structure of innovation. Resource-based theory is an important theory to explain the relationship between the resources available to an organization and the attitude, motivation, and behavior of innovation adoption. In the future, it can be used to explore how enterprises acquire and utilize innovation through their own resource advantages. The high-level echelon theory reveals the attitude of the composition of managers and the characteristics of team members towards the adoption of organizational innovation, future research can apply the high-level echelon theory to the differential performance of different managers′ characteristics in the adoption of progressive innovation and disruptive innovation.
     （3）Establishing an organizational innovation adoption model through drivers, moderators, mediators and outcome factors. a) The research on the antecedents of organizational innovation adoption can be divided into three aspects: technology, organization and environment. b) The research on mediation can be divided into front-end mediation and back-end mediation. From the perspective of cognition and ability, scholars have carried out abundant research on the mediation mechanism before the adoption of organizational innovation, while the research on the mediation mechanism after the adoption is relatively insufficient. c) The existing regulatory mechanisms adopted by organizational innovation can be divided into front-end regulation and back-end regulation, including innovation characteristics, organizational characteristics, environmental characteristics and so on. d) The discussion about the results of organizational innovation adoption mainly focuses on four aspects: enterprise performance, product innovation, competitive advantage and value creation.
     （4）Looks into future research directions. a) It is necessary to discuss the different adoption modes of "enabling technology" and "alternative technology", including discuss the heterogeneity of the adoption behavior of the two types of technologies and the derived organizational conflicts, which is of great practical significance to promote the application of emerging technologies. b) Discusses the domestic substitution adoption of the later-developed national key core technologies, including the decisive factors of domestic substitution of emerging technologies and organizational behavior decision-making can be further explored in the future to expand the research context of organizational innovation adoption. c) Discusses the diffusion and adoption of innovation in the business ecosystem, including explore the adoption mechanism and diffusion mechanism of organizational innovation in the ecosystem to enrich the subject of innovation adoption. d) The process and decision of innovation adoption in the industrial chain are discussed, including the antecedents and relationships of different adoption stages.
