Research On The Collaborative Innovation Key Elements And Improvement Path Of Virtual Enterprises

Under the background of great power competition and the construction of "dual circulation",promoting the transformation and upgrading of the innovation chain has increasingly become the key point for enterprises to maintain long-term competitive advantages and efficiently play the role of innovation radiation under the new normal.At the same time,virtual enterprises that can integrate redundant social resources and concentrate core capabilities play a non-negligible role in promoting the transformation and upgrading of the innovation chain.More over,the collaborative innovation efficiency of the alliance owner and members in the innovation chain is related to the success or failure of China’s innovation chain upgrading and transformation,then how to improve the collaborative innovation level of virtual enterprises to accelerate the transformation efficiency of innovation achievements has become an important management issue that needs to be solved urgently.Therefore,this paper takes 15 virtual enterprises as case objects,combines the grounded paradigm and QCA method,and makes an exploratory analysis of the key elements and improvement paths of collaborative innovation of virtual enterprises from configurational perspective.It is found that:(1)The key elements of virtual enterprise collaborative innovation mainly include five dimensions: organizational innovation,technological innovation,market innovation,product innovation and environmental protection,all of which play a vital role.(2)Category 3 paths can improve collaborative innovation level of virtual enterprises,mainly including three types: "market-driven product organization dual drive","technology-assisted product-led driven" and "internal and external linkage led by organizational change",presenting diversified promotion paths and interaction mechanisms for collaborative innovation of virtual enterprises.Among them,product innovation is the core condition of collaborative innovation.(3)A scientific and effective evaluation model of collaborative innovation of virtual enterprises was constructed,finding that product innovation had the greatest impact on collaborative innovation,the impact of technological innovation is second.The research conclusion has important theoretical and practical enlightenment for improving the collaborative innovation level of virtual enterprises,and can also provide reference for the sustainable and high-quality development of virtual enterprises and the transformation and upgrading of the innovation chain of China’s leading enterprises.
