“…For example, research should compare the effects of exploratory orientation, opportunities and bricolage on business model innovation and product innovation. This research should also be applied to other settings, particularly major emerging economies to improve its external validity and also to examine how governments might encourage further experimentation by local firms (Nair, Ahlstrom, & Filer, 2007).…”

Business model innovation takes shape through a process of experimentation. This study holds that exploratory orientation is a key initiating factor of the experimentation process, and opportunity recognition and entrepreneurial bricolage both are actions constituting this process and thereby serve as conduits between exploratory orientation and business model innovation. Based on a survey data of Chinese firms, this study finds the positive relationship between exploratory orientation and business model innovation is mediated by opportunity recognition and entrepreneurial bricolage. The findings not only enrich the discipline's knowledge on the antecedents of business model innovation but also extend the implications of exploratory orientation, opportunity recognition, and entrepreneurial bricolage to business model innovation.

“…To better understand the manner in which high-technology SME manage their technology acquisitions and application, it is important to consider firm environment as a strategic research site (Bijker, Hughes, & Pinch, 2012). The World Economic Forum (2015) and many researchers suggest that the degree of innovation in countries is shaped by formal (Nair, Ahlstrom, & Filer, 2007;North, 1990;Rodrik, 2009) and informal (Ahlstrom, Young, Nair, & Law, 2003;McCloskey, 2006;Landes, 1998;Mokyr, 2016) institutional factors such as economic policies, intellectual property, culture, and policies to encourage innovation and new venture creation. This not only encourages innovation and new ventures (McCloskey, 2013;Yu, Hao, Ahlstrom, Si, & Liang, 2014), but Siu (2005) also adds that national culture influences entrepreneurs' style of management and approach to business such as with guerilla marketing, facilitating intergenerational firm development (for family business), and encouraging growth mindsets in the organization (Dweck, 2007;McCloskey, 2010), allowing for trial and error experimentation (Wang, Ahlstrom, Nair, & Hang, 2008).…”

“…First, the average annual growth of electrical energy network production is used to determine the market growth [15,16]. Second, the human capital variable was measured by the number of workers in wind energy companies, and by the percentage of university students who study engineering degrees associated with wind energy [67,68].…”

This paper aims to propose a new approach of territorial competitiveness assessment revisited from the resource-based view, as the combination of location-specific resources and capabilities can improve the territorial socio-economic development. A territorial competitiveness index is calculated in order to assess the potential of renewable energy sources to improve the sustainable development in islands. Different sources of information and methodologies have been employed to measure the variables included in the model, thus ensuring a rigorous process in the index calculation. In order to quantify the basic resources, for example, a methodology based on a multicriteria analysis (MCA) with geographic information system (GIS) is suggested, with the objective of obtaining an indicator called index of available territorial resources. This index synthesizes the map information through a numerical value that allows integrating the territorial resource with other indicators of the model. The results of the study show that capability development is a key factor to better exploit the territorial resource endowment in order to achieve a competitive advantage.
