Business ecosystem governance, digital capabilities, and enterprises' digital innovation performance -Empirical data from China
Business ecosystems serve as a critical platform for firms to accumulate innovation resources, co-create value with stakeholders, and achieve innovation outcomes. Strengthening ecosystem governance can mitigate issues like "free-riding" and optimize the overall functioning of the ecosystem. Enhancing digital innovation performance through effective ecosystem governance has become a key strategy for complementary firms seeking innovation and growth. This study investigates how complementary firms within business ecosystems adapt to governance mechanisms to boost digital innovation performance. A survey of 684 complementary firms within the business ecosystem was conducted, with multiple regression analysis applied to examine the impact of ecosystem governance on digital innovation performance from the complementary firms' perspective. The analysis also explores the mediating role of digital capabilities and the moderating effect of technological dynamism. The findings indicate that: (1) both contractual and relational governance positively and significantly influence digital innovation performance; (2) digital perceptual capabilities and digital resource coordination capabilities mediate the relationship between ecosystem governance and digital innovation performance of complementary firms; (3) technological dynamism negatively moderates the relationship between contractual governance and digital capabilities, but does not influence the relationship between relational governance and digital capabilities. This research advances the understanding of the relationship between ecosystem governance and digital innovation performance in the context of the digital economy, offering insights from the perspective of complementary firms and highlighting the complex mechanisms through which ecosystem governance affects their digital innovation outcomes. The conclusions provide practical implications for complementary firms aiming to enhance their digital innovation performance within the digital economy.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Engineering and Technology Management (JET-M) is an international scholarly refereed research journal which aims to promote the theory and practice of technology, innovation, and engineering management.
The journal links engineering, science, and management disciplines. It addresses the issues involved in the planning, development, and implementation of technological capabilities to shape and accomplish the strategic and operational objectives of an organization. It covers not only R&D management, but also the entire spectrum of managerial concerns in technology-based organizations. This includes issues relating to new product development, human resource management, innovation process management, project management, technological fusion, marketing, technological forecasting and strategic planning.
The journal provides an interface between technology and other corporate functions, such as R&D, marketing, manufacturing and administration. Its ultimate goal is to make a profound contribution to theory development, research and practice by serving as a leading forum for the publication of scholarly research on all aspects of technology, innovation, and engineering management.
