基于中国制造业上市公司2008—2012年面板数据,以知识基础(知识深度、知识宽度)为调节变量,检验知识获取策略(技术许可引进、内部研发)对企业绩效的影响。研究表明,技术许可引进、内部研发均与企业绩效正相关;拥有较宽知识基础的企业应该通过内部研发以在核心技术领域积累知识从而提高企业绩效;相反,拥有较深知识基础的企业应该降低内部研发并把其战略转向技术许可引进以获取外部知识,从而提高企业绩效。
Based on panel data of Chinese listed manufacturing companies from 2008 to 2012, this paper taking knowledge base (knowledge depth, knowledge breath) as the moderating variable, examines the influence of knowledge acquisition strategy on corporate performance. The research results indicate that both inward technology licensing and internal R&D have positive correlations with corporate performance. In order to improve business performance, firms with a wide knowledge base should focus on internal R&D to accumulate knowledge in core technology areas. On the contrary, firms with a higher knowledge depth should reduce its internal R&D activities and shift their strategy to inward technology licensing for extemal knowledge, thus improve corporate performance.
