The Research Of The Relationship Among External Knowledge Acquisition, Complement Assets And Technology Innovation

In the background of economic globalization and China’s economic in strategic transformation, the enterprise in the face of rising volatility of the external environment, the innovation ability become one of the important ability to improve enterprise’s competitive position,and to promote the importance of enterprise development. The traditional single rely on internal resources for the mode of technology innovation is to turn to open, network development. Therefore, under the open innovation environment, enterprises through the external access to gain knowledge has been more and more attentioned. However, the success of technology innovation also needs the support of enterprise’s internal complementary assets. At present, the related empirical studies of complementary assets in domestic is still very scarce, the relations among external knowledge acquisition, complementary assets, and technology innovation research also involves little literature. Based on this, it is quite necessary to explore the relation of the three.This article is based on resource theory, through literature review and theoretical analysis discusses the relations among external knowledge acquisition, complementary assets, and technological innovation, and demonstrates the adjustment of volatility environment, formed the research model in this paper. And this paper through the questionnaire to collect data, using correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis to assume the inspection.Through the empirical analysis, we find the following main draw conclusion:the external knowledge acquisition has a positive effect on technology innovation, and compared with the innovation process, the external knowledge acquisition has greater impact on product innovation; Complementary assets also have positive influence, and manufacturing complementary assets have greater impact on process innovation than marketing complementary assets;and marketing complementary assets have greater impact on product innovation than manufacturing complementary assets.Complementary assets play the partial mediating role in the relationship between external knowledge acquisition and technology innovation; Environmental volatility is regulating the relationship between external knowledge acquisition and technology innovation.
