Research on the Relationship Model among Network Capability, Tacit Knowledge Transfer and Innovation Performance: Based on the Perspective of Focus Enterprise in Alliance Portfolio

Combining social network theory and knowledge management theory, based on the perspective of focus enterprise in alliance portfolio, this paper constructs the relationship model of network capability, tacit knowledge transfer and innovation performance, and conducts an empirical study on the questionnaire of 217 high-tech enterprises in Sichuan and Chongqing area of China. The results show that the four dimensions of network capability-network planning capability, network building capability, relationship management capability and location occupying capability, have significant positive effects on innovation performance. The four dimensions of network capability also have a significant positive effect on tacit knowledge transfer. Tacit knowledge transfer has a significant positive effect on innovation performance. Tacit knowledge transfer plays a partial mediating role in the relationship between the four dimensions of network capability and innovation performance.
