The Study on the Relationships for International New Ventures’ Foreign Market Experience, Network Linkage and International Performance: Knowledge Intensity as Mediator / 國際新創公司之海外市場經驗、網絡連結與國際化績效之關聯研究:以知識密度為中介變項

碩士 / 義守大學 / 管理研究所碩士班 / 94 / This study examined the effect of foreign market experience, network linkage, knowledge intensity, and absorptive capacity on performance of International New Ventures (INVs) by questionnaire survey. Foreign market experience was captured by depth of experience and diversity of experience; Network linkage includes partner linkage and sponsor linkage; partner linkage means the close relationships and the degree of involvement of customers and suppliers, sponsors linkage consists of the close relationships and supports from government and commercial banks. We define Knowledge intensity as the extent to which a firm depends on the knowledge inherent in its activities and outputs as a source of competitive advantage; absorptive capacity means the ability of identifying, exploiting and producing to market. And international performance was measured by financial performance and non-financial performance. Regression results showed the experience depth of TMT, and sponsor linkage predicted knowledge intensity of INVs; besides, knowledge intensity is a mediator in full model; but absorptive capacity has statistically significant influence on knowledge intensity. Implications are that knowledge intensity is a KSF to INVs’ performance. It means inter-organization firms had to focus on staffs’ past experience of depth and diversity in HRMs; on the other side, intra-organizations except for the close linkage to customers and suppliers, firms had to maintain much closer relationships with sponsors.
