The Mediating Effect of Absorptive Capacity and Relational Capital in Alliance Learning of SMEs
研究了学习意图、吸收能力和关系资本如何相互作用并影响中小企业联盟中的技术与非技术学习，通过实证检验这些学习决定因素之间的关系。
No business can create all the resources needed to prosper and grow. Collaboration among businesses that possess complementary resources is often necessary for survival and growth. Despite their importance and implications for alliance learning, no empirical study has to date attempted to investigate how the determinants of learning interact with each other, and are linked to the outcomes of alliance learning. This study contributes to the role of learning intent, absorptive capacity, and relational capital in enhancing learning activities and outcomes by empirically examining the relationships among these learning determinants and how they affect innovative SMEs’ technological and nontechnological learning in alliance relationships.
