不平衡时代的创新与创业研究

不平衡是新时代的基本特征。对于创新与创业而言，正是因为时代的不平衡而孕育了更多具有时代特色的创新想法和创业机会，也正是因为时代的不平衡为中国情境下的创新创业研究理论开发带来了更多挑战。在此背景下，首先，客观环境的不平衡来自创业者的主动感知，解决不平衡问题需要提高创业者的创新、创业能力，而能力的提升离不开创业认知加工和积极心理资本发挥作用。创业者通过环境扫描进行信息加工从而引发认知变革。创业团队知识和经验异质性带来了积极的心理资本。其次，合法性是创业企业在不平衡时代中得以生存和发展的"强心剂"。创业学习、关系网络都有助于企业获取合法性、解决新企业的合法性困境。创业企业战略选择和战略导向对于创业合法性也具有直接或间接的影响。最后，创业与创新融合下的商业模式创新逐渐成为不平衡时代的研究热点。商业模式创新需要适宜的资源开发、机会开发或机会-资源一体化开发行为支持，且机会、资源的开发还离不开由"环境-组织-个体"所组成的多层次影响因素发挥的联动效应。     

Accounting as an engine for the re‐creation of strategy at a university

This paper examines the role of accounting in the strategy re‐creation of a university. Drawing on Donald MacKenzie's theoretical notion of performative engines, our field study of an Australian university reveals how accounting, through various calculative practices, fuelled change and steered people into strategic action, leading to the formation of a new strategic plan. We contribute to the existing accounting and higher education literature on university strategising by illustrating how accounting, when convincing and accepted by decision‐makers, can function as an engine for the transformation and financialisation of universities’ strategies.     

You'll never walk alone: Why we need a supply chain practice view on digital procurement

This paper conceptualizes digital procurement readiness as a dyadic construct and introduces the supply chain practice view (SCPV) as a theoretical lens that can help guide future research on digital procurement. We build on a literature review and on dyadic, explanatory case studies to provide a nuanced understanding of how the digital readiness of supply chain partners—on both sides of the dyad—needs to co-evolve for the implementation of digital procurement practices. Specifically, we outline how the SCPV can serve as both a holistic and a supply chain-specific framework for future research on the following: 1) the antecedents that help explain why supply chain partners adopt inter-organizational digital procurement practices, and 2) the relational performance outcomes derived from their use. For managers, this study implies the need to explicitly consider interactions with and influences of supply chain partners in their quest to rapidly and effectively digitalize procurement.     

国际策略情境、国际双元学习与后发企业创新赶超

整合国际策略与双元学习理论，构建国际策略情境、国际双元学习的平衡和联合与后发企业创新赶超之间的关系模型。基于长三角地区327家外向型制造企业（高新技术企业）问卷调查数据，发现国际策略情境以及国际双元学习平衡和联合均显著正向影响企业创新赶超，国际策略情境对国际双元学习平衡和联合均具有显著正向影响，并且国际双元学习平衡和联合均在国际策略情境与创新赶超之间具有部分中介作用。研究结果揭示了国际化视域下双元学习与后发企业创新赶超的内在影响机制，延展了企业国际化、组织学习和创新赶超等相关领域理论空间，对于本土企业有效实施创新赶超具有启示意义。     

知识产权保护、进口贸易与创新型领军企业创新

本文首先从理论上分析了知识产权保护通过进口贸易影响企业创新的作用机制,随后,利用中国海关贸易数据与中国工业企业数据,实证分析了知识产权保护对企业创新的影响,并检验了知识产权保护通过进口贸易影响企业创新的作用机制。研究结果表明:(1)知识产权保护水平提高,能够显著促进创新型领军企业的创新。(2)从影响机制来看,知识产权保护水平提高,能够显著提升民营企业、专利密集型行业企业以及出口企业的进口规模,进而促进创新;能够显著提升民营企业和专利密集型行业企业的进口产品种类,进而促进创新;能够显著提升出口企业的进口产品质量,进而促进创新。中国正处在实施创新驱动发展战略的重要阶段,应重视并充分发挥知识产权保护与进口贸易对我国企业创新的促进作用。     

Club convergence and drivers of digitalization across Indian states

Disparity in the level of digitalization is a crucial driver of economic inequality in an economy. Although a pocket of its population is still bereft of the benefits of digitalization, India currently has the second highest number of internet subscribers in the world despite the nation's late adoption of digital technology. An accurate assessment of the current state of digitalization in the country is required for devising effective initiatives towards building a Digital India and bridging the nation's internal digital divide. Considering 17 major Indian states and 21 variables for 10 years, we constructed a composite index of digitalization with the help of Principal Component Method (PCM). This paper identifies factors responsible for the digitalization divide across states. In the second part of the analysis, the study confirms, with the help of club convergence test, the absence of overall convergence towards digitalization and the existence of the non-convergent group. This paper also shows that the non-convergent group of states are at the bottom of the ranking table which indicates the need for greater attention to initiatives to bridge the digital divide.     

Innovation in the bioeconomy – dynamics of biorefinery innovation networks

The bioeconomy has become a central concept in many strategies for future economic development, emphasising an increasing need for collaboration across industries and sectors for innovation. This paper unpacks aspects of collaboration in the bioeconomy by looking at the development of innovation networks for biorefinery technologies from 2004 to 2014 based on innovation project data from Swedish public funding agencies using a stochastic actor-oriented model for network analysis. The analysis shows that although the network grew significantly during the time period, indicating an increasing interest in biorefinery technology innovation, inter-sectoral collaboration is not favoured over intra-sectoral collaboration. As is known from previous work on social networks trust-building is a key driver for collaboration, as actors tend to form collaborations with previous partners or indirectly connected partners, creating clustered networks.     

Determinants of consumers’ intentions to use smartphones apps for flight ticket bookings

This study examines customers’ adoption and acceptance of smartphone apps to book their flight tickets. By integrating customers’ innovativeness, involvement and perceived trust as additional variables, this study extends the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) and proposes a theoretical model that includes seven explanatory variables of the customers’ behavioural intentions: performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, customers’ innovativeness, customers’ involvement and perceived trust. Data were collected from 369 customers who had booked their flight tickets via smartphone apps and was further analysed by employing partial least squares (PLS). Findings suggest that performance expectancy, facilitating conditions, customer innovativeness and perceived trust are positive and significant determinants of customers’ intentions to book their flight tickets on smartphone apps. Accordingly, several important implications for academics and industry decision makers are formulated.
