From the perspective of sociology, technological innovation capabilities depend on the corporate social capital. Using empirical methods, combined with enterprise features, to study the relationship between corporate social capital and technological innovation performance, can better explain the source of technological innovation.Based on theoretical research, through two intermediate variables resource acquisition and resource sharing, from two aspects of corporate social capital (external and internal social capital).Taking Communication Equipment Manufacturing Enterprises in Zhejiang as an example, researching on the relationship between the close degree of contact, the contact frequency, the contact number and resource acquisition and resource sharing, as well as the relationship between resources acquisition, resource sharing and technological innovation performance; through the intermediary role between the two to verify the corporate social capital has a positive impact on technological innovation performance, the main conclusions are as follows:First, the close degree of external linkages, external contact frequency, number of external contacts and resource acquisition has a positive correlation; close degree of internal links, internal contact frequency, number of internal contact and resource sharing also has a positive correlation. The links between enterprise and external body more closely, more frequently linked to the relevant actors ,the enterprises can acquire innovation resources easier; the more closely, the more frequent the links between actors in organization , the information and knowledge sharing will be more easier .Second, the corporate social capital on technological innovation performance has a positive impact. Moreover, the greater impact of external social capital. To enhance the level of innovation, enterprises need to strengthen the effect of contact, to increase the frequency of contact and expand the number of contact, in order to develop the internal and external social capital and promote technological innovation performance.Third, information acquisition, knowledge acquisition and capital acquisition all play a mediating role in the relationships between the external social capital and technological innovation performance; Information sharing and knowledge sharing both play a mediating role in the relationships between the internal social capital and technological innovation performance. Enhancing the strength of resource acquisition and the intensity of resource sharing, will help to promote technological innovation performance.
