【摘要】 在全球化的知识经济时代,创新的边界大大扩展,创新网络能有效汇集分散、多样化的知识资源与企业内部的创新资源有机整合起来进行协同创新,另一方面,企业的管理活动在空间上分布更广,组织结构呈现出明显网络化特征,探索协同创新的规律性、借助内外创新网络的协同提升竞争能力,是企业顺应经济全球化趋势、从开放式创新中获取最大收益的捷径。本研究围绕开放式创新环境下企业创新网络中要素协同与能力提升问题,基于制造型企业,按照“要素——结构——能力”的思路,从三个逻辑上相互关联的子研究进行了理论和实证研究:(1)创新网络中企业内外协同创新与创新能力提升的战略途径;(2)创新网络中企业内外创新要素的协同与能力提升机制;(3)创新网络中企业内外要素协同和创新能力之间的动态演化规律性。主要针对企业内外创新网络协同及其影响下的内部要素协同两个层次。子研究一在文献理论基础上,对三家制造型企业进行了探索性案例研究。初步探寻企业获取外部网络资源、通过内部整合转化为企业技术创新能力的过程和模式,研究指出产业转型升级首先是企业能力的转型升级,结构调整需要创新能力的调整。创新网络反映了创新本质和协同本质的必然要求,促进不同创新个体建立紧密联系,构建创新要素汇集、共享和协同的网络体系,从而更好的整合分散的创新资源协同形成创新合力,提出了六个初始假设命题,为本文的后续研究提供了源于实践的理论构想。子研究二基于命题假设,通过跨层次概念重构,将企业看作一个由不同要素/部门构成的网络结构,构建了企业内外创新网络协同对创新能力作用机制的整体框架,通过对278家浙江省和山东省制造类企业的问卷调研,运用结构方程模型构建高阶因子模型分三步来分析企业创新网络内外的协同:首先,分析企业内外创新网络的各个维度(dimensionality)对企业不同创新能力(探索性与利用性)产生的单独作用;第二步分析企业内外创新网络的二阶构念之间存在显著的相关性,即相互之间存在明显互动(interaction);第三步将二阶因子合为一个综合实体(general entity),表示内外各维度之间互补性,最后引入了环境动态变量,考察这种环境对内外网络和创新活动(能力与绩效)间关系的强度或方向影响。子研究三在前面研究基础上,用系统动力学仿真(SD)方法研究企业在内外创新网络的协同与创新能力的动态演化特征,首先构建一个基于结构方程的二阶SD模型,进一步研究企业内外创新网络协同对创新能力的动态作用。然后基于案例构建一阶SD模型,探索在网络环境下企业内部创新要素协同与创新能力的动态演进的关系;总结了创新网络中的要素协同与创新能力演化的动态规律。本研究的主要创新点是:(1)主要基本点是揭示创新网络中的创新要素协同和创新能力发展的内在规律性从企业内外网络之间协同和企业内部要素协同两个层次研究网络中企业创新能力动态演化:首先验证了企业内外创新网络存在互动,在这种互动基础上的互补性能促进探索性创新能力和利用性创新能力的共同发展,从而促进企业二元性组织建设,内外协同也会使创新能力具有更长的持续性。其次研究了在创新网络影响下企业内部多维度要素组合推动能力演进的作用:技术和市场要素协同是创新能力发展的基础;而组织和体制要素协同是支持和保障;而战略和文化要素协同对创新能力演化具有导向性;企业原创能力的建设需要企业在战略和文化上创新的支持和引导。(2)分析了通过创新网络推动协同创新,提升企业创新能力的战略途径针对不同类型创新能力,总结了三种提升创新能力的战略途径,即通过内部要素协同不断提升渐进式创新能力;通过内外跨界协同提升集成创新能力;通过战略联盟协同提升原创发明能力。随着创新能力发展,企业首先要通过内部要素协同体系构建系统化创新能力,然后沿着价值链的与网络中不同个体协同创新。(3)分析了企业内外创新网络的协同与创新能力提升的机制研究验证了企业内外互动与互补效应,发现企业内部创新体系是创新能力发展的基础,内外部创新网络的协同能促进不同性质创新能力之间的协同发展,实现组织二元性(ambidexterity),内外协同降低环境动荡性产生负面作用这也完善了对创新网络的协同创新机制的理解,从而拓展了企业创新要素协同与提升能力的空间范围。(4)将企业内部与外部网络的两个维度整合在一个框架内,采用动态研究方法探讨了企业协同创新与创新能力演化的规律性,填补了创新网络中企业外部与内部之间分离缝隙,也扩展了全面创新与协同创新的本质联系。

【Abstract】 In the era of globalization and knowledge economy, innovation boundary extends and innovation network becomes the best way for benefits from open innovation because of its embedded organizational mechanism and flexible coordinated approach which integrate scattered knowledge resources and enterprises’inner resources for synergetic innovation. In addition, the organizational structure and management activities change rapidly with disperse productive activity and expanding management range in different fields. How to achieve the synergy of inter- and intra-innovation network to leverage innovation capability is the major problem of enterprises in open innovation landscape.This study encloses the elements synergy and capability leveraging of manufacturing enterprises’innovation networks in the context of open innovation, and proposes three logically interrelated sub-studies according to the routine: element--structure--capability. The three sub-studies are:1). Strategic pathway to leverage enterprise’s innovation capability by synergy of internal and external innovation elements in innovation networks; 2). Mechanism to leverage enterprise’s innovation capability by synergy of innovation elements in innovation networks; 3). The dynamic evolution law of innovation capability based on synergy of enterprise’s internal and external innovation network elements.The first sub-study on the basis of exploratory case studies of three manufacturing companies is to explore the mechanism that enterprises integrate external and internal resource, and transform resources into technological innovation capabilities. The research points out that the key to industrial transformation and upgrading is leveraging innovation capability, which is also the basis of structural adjustment. Innovation network reflects the nature of innovation and synergy which can utilize the scattered innovation resources effectively. And six initial assumptions are proposed. Insights from the case studies provide theoretical ideas from practice for the study that followed in the next sections. The second sub-study proposes assumptions on the basis of the first sub-study, and makes in-depth analysis under the related theoretical discussion. By the i omorphism of reconstruction, this sub-study treats enterprise as a structure composed of different elements and departments, and builds the overall framework of enterprise’s internal and external innovation network synergy and innovation capability mechanism. By questionnaire survey of 278 enterprises in Zhejiang and Shandong Province, this sub-study utilizes high order factor model of structural equation model to analyze the internal and external innovation network synergy in three steps:(1) Analyzing each dimension’s influence of internal and external innovation networks on different innovation capability (exploration and exploitation); (2) Analyzing second-order constructs’ significant correlation (namely interaction) of internal and external innovation networks; (3) Constructing second-order factor as a general entity which represents the complementary characteristic of different dimensions. By introduces environment dynamic variable, it studies the strength or direction of influence of environment toward the relationship between capability and performance.The third sub-study is based on the previous two studies and uses system dynamics (SD) method for analyzing the internal and external innovation networks synergy and the dynamic evolution characteristics of innovation capability. It first establishes a second-order model on the basis of structural equation, in order to studies the dynamic influence of enterprise’s internal and external innovation network synergy toward innovation capability. Then, under case studies, it establishes first-order system dynamic model to explore the dynamic evolution relationship between enterprise’s internal innovation element synergy and innovation capability in the context of network environment. Finally, it summarizes the dynamic law of element synergy and innovation capability evolution in innovation network.The research innovative points are as follows:1. Exploring the inherent law of innovation elements synergy and development of innovation capability in the context of innovation network.Research focuses on the dynamic evolution of enterprises’innovation capability in network and is carried out from two research level—the synergy of enterprise’ internal network and external network, and the synergy of enterprise’s internal elements. The first research level refers to the synergy between internal and external enterprise, and it verifies that the internal network and external network exists interaction. The complementary on the basis of interaction promotes the development of exploration innovation capability and exploitation innovation capability simultaneously, and promotes the construction of ambidextrous organization in a longer duration. The second research level refers to the synergy of enterprise’s internal elements and multi-dimensional elements’ combination promotes the capability transformation from non-core capability to core capability. The role of elements’ synergy has hierarchical characteristic, such as the basic characteristic of technological and market elements’ synergy, the supporting characteristic of organizational and institutional elements’ synergy, and the orientation of strategic and cultural elements’ synergy. The establishment of enterprise’s original capability needs support and guidance from synergy of strategy and culture.2. Analyzing the strategic parthways to leverage innovation capabilities in innovation networks by synergetic innovation.The research proposes that enterprises should first build systematic innovation capability by internal elements’ synergy, then promote synergetic innovation along the value chain and by different individuals of network, Three strategic pathways are summarized:To promote incremental innovation capability by synergy of internal elements, and to leverage Integrated Innovation capability by cross-border synergy, and to enhance original invention capability by strategic alliance synergy.3. Mechanism to leverage innovation capability by the synergy of enterprises’ internal and external innovation networks.The research examines the enterprises’ internal and external interaction and complementary effects. It indicates that the enterprise’s internal innovation system is the basis of the development of innovation capability. The synergy of internal and external innovation network promotes the development of different innovation capability, achieves organizational ambidexterity, and reduces the negative effect of environmental turbulence which also improves the understanding of synergetic innovation mechanism, so as to enlarge the spatial extent of enterprise innovation elements’synergy and capability leveraging.4. Integrating internal network and external network into a holistic framework to study dynamic evolution of innovation capability.From the methodology, system dynamics model is applied to study the synergy of innovation elements across different levels, and the holistic framework fills the gap between enterprises’internal and external innovation networks.
