Strategic alliances have assumed a pivotal role in the growth and competitiveness of organisations, especially in contexts of rapid technological change and high environmental complexity. Drawing on the Dynamic Capabilities View (DCV), this study aims to analyse the impact of strategic alliance...

This study investigates how entrepreneurial orientation (EO) influences firm performance, focusing on both environmental and financial performance. Drawing on the resource-based view (RBV) and knowledge-based view (KBV), the study develops an integrative framework in which green product and...

Exploration and exploitation have opposite natures; therefore, balancing the two presents a key challenge for firms. Recent studies have argued that firms can combine exploration (exploitation) capabilities with exploitation (exploration) partnerships to surmount this obstacle. However, little...

Despite the relevance of team boundary spanning in new product development (NPD), there is great deal we still do not know about these activities. For example, little is known about how these activities affect the development of team identification, an important emergent state with critical...

This paper studies the interaction between process and product innovations and their distinct role in firm growth dynamics. We differentiate empirically and theoretically two types of process innovations: foundational processes that advance production technology and cost-reducing processes that...

Innovationen sind essenziell für die Wettbewerbsfähigkeit der deutschen Wirtschaft. Kooperationen zwischen Unternehmen und wissenschaftlichen Einrichtungen gewinnen dabei zunehmend an Bedeutung. Unternehmen, die mit wissenschaftlichen Einrichtungen zusammenarbeiten, haben häufiger Erfolg bei...

To remain competitive and make effective decisions in increasingly challenging markets, firms must integrate internal and external knowledge by embedding knowledge management strategies and technologies into their operations. This study aims to examine the roles of strategic foresight and...

Developing medical device innovations is a lengthy and costly endeavor, so engaging the right participants early in the process is crucial. While much of the existing literature focuses on procedural aspects of innovation, the human factors that influence success are often overlooked. The Lead...

This study addresses the fragmented understanding of the relationship between digital transformation (DT) and innovation by proposing a multi-level framework that integrates diverse disciplinary perspectives. This framework provides deep insight into how DT influences innovation. A systematic...

Digital technologies (DTs) have resulted in innovations that have fueled global knowledge-based economic development. This systematic review of the literature focuses on the relationship between DTs and innovation. Drawing on the extant literature, we investigate 685 articles published in 41...

Background: This study conceptualizes supply chain ambidexterity through two capabilities, supply chain adaptability and agility. Accordingly, it investigates the impact of supply chain adaptability and agility on green product innovation (GPI) and supply chain sustainability in Jordanian...

This study advances the theoretical and practical understanding of meaning-driven innovation by proposing a modified design thinking (DT) framework grounded in hermeneutic principles. Unlike conventional DT approaches that prioritize user needs and problem-solving, this research reframes...

As consumer behavior in circular supply chains becomes increasingly critical for sustainability, a deeper understanding of the mechanisms driving end-of-life (EOL) product return decisions is necessary. This study investigates how consumer-level open innovation influences EOL product return...
