Abstract

Purpose

This study investigates the influence of Knowledge Management (KM) on the Economic Performance (EP) of wineries in Spain and examines the intermediary role of Open Innovation (OI) in this relationship, also considering the effects of the age of the winery, its size and its affiliation to a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) as control variables to refine the causality analysis.

Design/methodology/approach

A theoretical framework derived from existing literature underpins this study, which employs Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to analyze data gathered from 196 wineries across Spain during the period from September 2022 to January 2023.

Findings

The analysis demonstrates a positive correlation between the implementation of KM practices and the EP of the wineries studied. Additionally, it identifies OI as a partial mediator in the relationship between KM and EP.

Originality/value

This research contributes to the academic discourse by outlining the benefits of KM, particularly in the Spanish wine sector, given that, to the authors' knowledge, there are no previous studies that have examined the catalytic effect of KM on OI and EP in this context, which supports the generation of new academic knowledge.

知识管理作为西班牙葡萄酒业经济绩效的驱动力：开放式创新的中介作用

目的本研究探讨了知识管理（KM）对西班牙葡萄酒厂经济绩效（EP）的影响，并研究了开放式创新（OI）在这一关系中的中介作用，同时还考虑了葡萄酒厂的年龄、规模和是否隶属于受保护的原产地名称（PDO）作为控制变量的影响，以完善因果关系分析。本研究采用偏最小二乘法结构方程模型（PLS-SEM），对 2022 年 9 月至 2023 年 1 月期间从西班牙 196 家酒庄收集的数据进行分析。原创性/价值这项研究概述了知识管理的益处，尤其是在西班牙葡萄酒行业的益处，从而为学术讨论做出了贡献，因为据作者所知，此前没有任何研究探讨过知识管理在这一背景下对开放式创新（OI）和卓越绩效（EP）的促进作用，这有助于产生新的学术知识。
