Abstract

As a central part of innovation, R&D has played a key role in affecting firm's innovation performance. In the perspective of resource-based view, this paper comprehensively establishes the framework of R&D capability, and conducts an empirical research to explore the relationship between R&D capability and innovation performance of firms, combining with the data from innovative survey of "Optics Valley of China" in 2006. The finding proves that innovation performance is closely related to the total improvement of R&D capability. The number of patents owned and experimental development input intensity are the most important factors significantly affecting firm's innovation performance. For large firms, the number of science and technology center is also found to be the R&D capability affecting the innovation performance, while the ratio of R&D personnel is surprisingly found to be vital for small firms. Hence, high-tech firms should establish feasible and appropriate strategies in terms of size and resources condition, in order to get better and quicker development. At the same time, the authorities should set down innovative incentive policies and patent regulations to build a harmonious environment.

基于中国光谷高科技企业的研发能力与创新绩效关系研究

研发作为创新的核心环节，对企业的创新绩效起着关键作用。本文在资源基础视角下，全面构建了研发能力框架，并结合2006年“中国光谷”创新调查数据，对企业研发能力与创新绩效之间的关系进行了实证研究。研究结果表明，企业的创新绩效与整体研发能力的提升密切相关。专利拥有量和实验开发投入强度是影响企业创新绩效的最重要因素。对于大型企业而言，科技中心的数量同样是影响创新绩效的研发能力，而对于小型企业而言，研发人员的比例则是至关重要的。因此，高新技术企业应根据自身的规模和资源条件，制定切实可行的战略，以实现更好更快的发展。与此同时，当局应该制定创新激励政策和专利法规，以建立一个和谐的环境。
