摘要

区位选择如何影响跨国公司的创新一直是争议的主题，对地理集中或分散的研究尤其不足。问题在于，跨国公司的分散或集中会如何影响员工之间的信息沟通和管理。针对这一不足，本研究引入了时间同步的概念，试图从一个新的视角来考察跨国公司区位选择与企业创新质量之间的关系。通过收集中国国际化企业的数据，我们发现母子公司之间的时间同步与母公司的创新质量呈正相关，而数字化程度加强了这种正相关关系。这项研究强调了母子公司之间员工互动的工作时间重叠在获取信息、理解和吸收海外知识以提高母公司创新质量方面的关键作用。

How Does Time Synchronization Affect Innovation Quality?

How location choice influences innovation in MNCs has been the subject of controversy, and the examination of geographic concentration or dispersion is particularly insufficient. The question is, how will the decentralization or centralization of MNCs affect the communication and management of information among employees. To address this deficiency, this study introduces the concept of time synchronization and attempts to examine the relationship between MNCs location choice and corporate innovation quality from a new perspective. By gathering data from the Chinese internationalized firms, we found that time synchronization between parents and subsidiaries is positively associated with the innovation quality of parent firms, and the degree of digitization strengthens this positive relationship. This study underscores the crucial role of overlapping work time for employee interactions between parents and subsidiaries to acquire information in comprehending and absorbing overseas knowledge to improve the innovation quality of parent firms.

期刊介绍： Authors are encouraged to submit manuscripts that are consistent to the following submission themes: (a) Cross-National Studies. These need not be cross-culture per se. These studies lead to understanding of IT as it leaves one nation and is built/bought/used in another. Generally, these studies bring to light transferability issues and they challenge if practices in one nation transfer. (b) Cross-Cultural Studies. These need not be cross-nation. Cultures could be across regions that share a similar culture. They can also be within nations. These studies lead to understanding of IT as it leaves one culture and is built/bought/used in another. Generally, these studies bring to light transferability issues and they challenge if practices in one culture transfer.
