Abstract

Abstract The current increasing topic around empirical study is environmental issues. Several previous studies examined how open innovation strategies could affect eco-innovation amid research debates about environmental conservation in corporate innovation. This study aims to prove the effect of open innovation strategies on creating eco-innovation to affect SMEs’ sustainable competitive advantage and performance empirically. This study developed and empirically tested the mediating role of eco-innovation on sustainable competitive advantage and performance. A quantitative approach in testing the empirical research model was implemented. A total of 223 SMEs in the batik sector in Yogyakarta were examined. We used purposive sampling approach to select the research sample. The criteria used in the sampling is SMEs batik which has been operating for three years or more. The results revealed that open innovation strategies significantly positively affected eco-innovation while eco-innovation significantly positively affected competitive advantage and SMEs performance. Environmental uncertainty strengthened the eco-innovation relationship on competitive advantage, but not on the SMEs’ performance.

开放创新战略与中小企业绩效：生态创新在环境不确定性中的中介作用

环境问题是当前实证研究中日益突出的话题。在关于企业创新中的环境保护的研究争论中，一些先前的研究考察了开放式创新战略如何影响生态创新。本研究旨在实证证明开放式创新策略对中小企业可持续竞争优势和绩效的影响。本研究开发并实证检验了生态创新对可持续竞争优势和绩效的中介作用。采用定量方法对实证研究模型进行检验。对日惹蜡染部门的223家中小企业进行了审查。我们采用有目的抽样的方法来选择研究样本。抽样使用的标准是经营三年或三年以上的中小型蜡染企业。结果表明，开放式创新策略显著正向影响生态创新，生态创新显著正向影响竞争优势和中小企业绩效。环境不确定性增强了生态创新对竞争优势的影响，但对中小企业绩效没有影响。
