“…IT capability considered as a tactical tool for getting cuttingedge innovation (Karimi-Alaghehband and Rivard, 2020). Similarly, industry observers claimed that the dynamic IT capability can provide a significant value to innovative capability (Qin et al, 2021). A firm's IT capability must be continually modernized and efficiently harnessed for innovative capability (Li and Chan, 2019).…”

PurposeWith the ever-growing turbulent business setting, there is a great interest to study how a firm tailors information technology (IT) capability to shape agility and innovation capability to stay ahead of the competition. This study examines how IT governance and IT capability can be tailored to achieve firm performance through agility and innovative capability in a turbulent environment.Design/methodology/approachDrawing on the dynamic capability theory, this study based on the primary survey data of 253 responses from senior IT and business executives in China proves the hypothesized relationship in the proposed model.FindingsThis study shows that the IT governance mechanism positively impacts on IT-enabled dynamic capabilities. Further, IT-enabled dynamic capabilities positively impact on agility and innovative capability that in turn support to achieve firm performance. The environmental uncertainty is only significant in the IT-enabled dynamic capabilities–business process agility relationship.Research limitations/implicationsThis study suggests corporate leaders and executives to better exploit their resources and tailor IT capabilities in the turbulent environment. Further, this study offers theoretical and practical implications.Originality/valueThis study proposes ways for executives to examine the multifaceted nature of environmental uncertainty to achieve agility, innovation and firm performance rather than simply investing in IT.

“…Based on the perspective of dynamic capability theory and the empirical data of 261 enterprises participating in the Standard Alliance, Zhang et al (2022) conducts an empirical study on the relationship between knowledge integration capabilities, partnership quality, and alliance innovation performance. The knowledge integration ability of the enterprise has a positive effect on improving the performance of the technical standards alliance, and the improvement of the quality of the partnership in the technical standards alliance will also help the knowledge integration ability and the alliance management ability to jointly play a positive role in the performance of the technical standards alliance (Qin et al, 2021;Sousa-Ginel et al, 2021;Junaid et al, 2022;Sultana et al, 2022).…”

“…Compared with enterprises with strong knowledge integration ability, enterprises with weak knowledge integration ability need to play the role of knowledge sharing more and fully release knowledge value through knowledge-sharing processes such as constructing a knowledge portfolio, improving knowledge management ability, and using knowledge to leverage opportunities (Kong et al, 2021). Meanwhile, knowledge sharing improves the open innovation environment of enterprises through optimal knowledge management, which is conducive to better innovation performance (Sheng and Hartmann, 2019;Qin et al, 2021). Therefore, the innovation performance of digital enterprises may be influenced by the…”

This paper takes 36 unicorn enterprises in China as a sample case. Based on the perspective of open innovation and knowledge, combined with the background of the transformation and development of China’s digital economy, the antecedent conditions such as the three dimensions of knowledge integration ability, the two dimensions of open innovation and knowledge sharing are integrated by using configuration thinking and fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) method. The multiple concurrent factors and causal complex mechanisms affecting innovation performance are discussed. The results show that: 1) The different dimensions of knowledge integration capability, open innovation, and knowledge sharing have six configurations to achieve high-level firm performance; 2) Different knowledge integration capabilities can all promote innovation performance; 3) knowledge sharing improves the management and utilization of knowledge, which is an important guarantee for improving innovation performance. The conclusion expands the innovation perspective of the matching of knowledge and open innovation, helps to understand the mechanism of innovation performance, and provides theoretical reference and beneficial enlightenment for enterprises to effectively improve innovation performance.

“…Although R&D focuses more on internal knowledge and resources and the technical aspects of the NPD process, successful new product entry and growth often require extensive feedback from consumers and industrial buyers acquired in the test marketing stage (Cooper, 1979; Johne and Snelson, 1988; Huang et al , 2013). Particularly, customer knowledge can increase the tendency for companies to conduct exploratory NPD and guide the NPD process to meet customer needs, thus increasing the significance of new products when they are commercialized (Qin et al , 2021; Sihvonen et al , 2021). In addition, customer knowledge also significantly reduces business risks in exploratory NPD (Tang and Marinova, 2020; Wei et al , 2021).…”

Purpose This study aims to examine the antecedents of knowledge-seeking intentions (SIs) and efforts within new product development (NPD) teams. Design/methodology/approach Data was collected from 331 employees affiliated with 29 NPD teams across 18 Chinese firms in five high-tech and knowledge-based industries via an online assessment and a survey. Hierarchical linear modelling was used to test the hypotheses using HLM and Mplus software. Findings The results of this study show that intrinsic task motivation (IM) and personal task experience (TE) positively relate to SIs, whereas leadership support (LS) and shared culture (SC) negatively relate to knowledge-seeking efforts (SEs). SIs partially mediate the relationship between IM and SEs, while they fully mediate the relationship between TE and SEs. Additionally, customer orientation (CO) positively moderates the relationship between SIs and SEs. Research limitations/implications Data collection was completed online by relying on an existing version of the Abedi Creativity Test. The samples involve 18 companies in a High-Tech Development Zone in China, which indicates limited generalizability. Practical implications Effective NPD depends on successful marketing–R&D integration and knowledge exchange within the NPD team. Besides, organizations need to find ways to stimulate NPD team members’ IM and also through various ways to inspire more efforts from team members under the condition of supportive leadership and culture. Originality/value This study contributes to the knowledge management and marketing literature on NPD teamwork by examining knowledge-seeking phenomena from the perspective of the internal knowledge market and contributes to knowledge-seeking research by revealing the antecedents of SIs and SEs at both the individual and organizational level.
