高科技新创企业网络跨度与绩效的倒U型关系研究

Research on the Inverted U-Shaped Relationship between Network Range and Performance of High-Tech New Venture

由于网络关系管理和利用的复杂性以及组织资源、能力的限制,网络跨度与新创企业绩效之间的线性关系不断受到质疑。借鉴社会资本理论和能力观,考察网络跨度与新创企业绩效之间的关系本质,以及网络响应能力在上述关系中的重要作用。基于187份中国高科技新创企业数据,利用多元调节回归方法的实证结果表明,网络跨度与新创企业绩效间存在倒U型关系,网络响应能力在网络跨度与新创企业绩效间发挥调节效用,即通过有效管理和利用网络,优化网络跨度对高科技新创绩效的影响效应。最后,讨论研究的理论意义和实践价值。

Due to the complexity of network relationship management and utilization,the linear relationship between network range and performance has been questioned.Drawing upon social capital theory and the view of capability,the study examines the nature of the relationship between network range and new venture performance,and the important role of network responsiveness in the relationship.Based on 187 high-tech new ventures,the empirical results using multivariate adjusted regression analysis indicate an inverted U-shaped relationship between network range and performance,network responsiveness has a moderating effect on the inverted U-shaped relationship between network range and performance.That is,optimizing the impact of network range on high-tech new ventures'performance through effective management and utilization of the network.The study implications are discussed.
