摘要

本研究探讨了焦点企业和合作伙伴的自我网络密度（即自我密度）对焦点企业在技术领域对合作伙伴竞争行为的差异效应，以及整个联盟网络中相对结构洞的调节作用。实证结果表明，焦点企业的自我密度与技术入侵呈倒u型关系，而合作伙伴企业的自我密度与技术入侵呈负向关系。相对结构洞强化了焦点企业自我密度与技术入侵之间的倒u型关系，减弱了合作伙伴企业自我密度对技术入侵的负向影响。通过同时考虑这种结盟关系中的参与者以及自我和整个联盟网络的协同作用，这些结果增加了我们对这种网络中合作关系的理解。

Don't ignore either side: The differential impact of ego-network density of the focal firm and partner on technological invasion

This study investigated the differential effects of the ego-network density (i.e., ego-density) of the focal firm and its partner on the focal firm's competitive behavior toward its partner in technological areas, as well as the moderating role of relative structural holes in the whole alliance network. The empirical findings indicate that the ego-density of the focal firm has an inverted U-shaped relationship with technological invasion, whereas the ego-density of the partner firm has a negative effect. Relative structural holes also appear to strengthen the inverted U-shaped relationship between the focal firm's ego-density and technological invasion while attenuating the negative effect of the partner firm's ego-density on technological invasion. By concurrently considering both participants in this allying relationship and the synergistic interaction of the ego and whole alliance network, these results add to our understanding of the coopetition relationship within such networks.

期刊介绍： The European Management Journal (EMJ) stands as a premier scholarly publication, disseminating cutting-edge research spanning all realms of management. EMJ articles challenge conventional wisdom through rigorously informed empirical and theoretical inquiries, offering fresh insights and innovative perspectives on key management themes while remaining accessible and engaging for a wide readership. EMJ articles embody intellectual curiosity and embrace diverse methodological approaches, yielding contributions that significantly influence both management theory and practice. We actively seek interdisciplinary research that integrates distinct research traditions to illuminate contemporary challenges within the expansive domain of European business and management. We strongly encourage cross-cultural investigations addressing the unique challenges faced by European management scholarship and practice in navigating global issues and contexts.
