孵化器编配能力对孵化网络创新绩效影响研究——网络协同效应的中介作用

Impact of Incubator Orchestration Capacity on Innovation Performance of Incubation Network:The Mediating Role of Network Synergistic Effect

孵化器的网络化发展使孵化器承载协同网络主体互动、推动网络演进的功能得以体现。本研究将编配理论引入企业孵化网络,提出孵化器编配能力,以194家初创在孵企业为样本,探讨网络视角下孵化器编配能力在网络协同效应的中介作用下对孵化网络创新绩效的影响机理。研究结果表明:(1)孵化器编配能力的知识迁移能力维度、创新保护能力维度、网络稳定能力维度对网络协同效应和孵化网络创新绩效均有显著的正向影响;(2)网络协同效应在知识迁移能力维度与孵化网络创新绩效之间表现出完全中介作用,而在创新保护能力维度、网络稳定能力维度与孵化网络创新绩效之间起部分中介作用。研究结论为完善孵化器能力构建与评价体系、解释孵化器绩效差异与孵化资源配置过程提供了新的理论视角,进一步深化了企业孵化理论。

Given the fact that incubators ＇ function of promoting the development and evolution of incubation network is often ignored, we introduce orchestration theory into enterprise incubation network and propose incubator orchestration capacity to explain the contradictory conclusion of the usefulness and impact of business incubator on incubation performance and enrich the reference to exploring influencing factors in incubation process. Sampling data from 194 incubated firms, this paper discusses the mechanism of impact of incubator orches- tration capacity on incubation network innovation performance from network perspective. The results show that incubator knowledge mobil- ity capacity, innovation appropriability capacity and network stability capacity all have a positive and significant impact on incubation network innovation performance; all dimensions of incubator orchestration capacity have a positive and significant impact on incubation network synergistic effect; network synergy has a complete mediating effect on the relationship between incubator knowledge mobility ca- pacity and incubation network innovation performance and a partial mediating effect in the relationship among innovation appropriability capacity, network stability capacity and incubation network innovation performance, respectively. The research conclusions contribute a new theoretical perspective of explaining incubation performance diversification, and could be a new reference to complementing incuba- tor capacity construction and decoding incubation resource orchestration process to improve incubation performance.
