Abstract
Technological advancements are forcing firms to innovate quickly to sustain a competitive advantage. However, despite theoretical arguments and empirical findings, the mechanisms that influence the speed of innovation and firms’ international performance are surprisingly unexplored in the international business literature. Therefore, this study offers theoretical rigor through the resource-based view and dynamic capabilities framework to improve our understanding of how firms can achieve international performance. This study develops a conceptual model to investigate the joint effects of international open innovation, international dynamic capabilities, and the speed of innovation on firms’ international performance. This study empirically examines a conceptual model using 303 valid responses from marble manufacturers in the province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Pakistan. The results confirm that international open innovation has a positive and significant effect on the international performance of marble manufacturers. The findings also suggest that international open innovation and international dynamic capabilities together influence the speed of innovation and the international performance of marble manufacturers. This study concludes that strong dynamic international capabilities can turn open international innovation into a source of international performance for manufacturers through the speed of innovation. Several theoretical and policy implications are discussed.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Innovation and Knowledge (JIK) explores how innovation drives knowledge creation and vice versa, emphasizing that not all innovation leads to knowledge, but enduring innovation across diverse fields fosters theory and knowledge. JIK invites papers on innovations enhancing or generating knowledge, covering innovation processes, structures, outcomes, and behaviors at various levels. Articles in JIK examine knowledge-related changes promoting innovation for societal best practices.
JIK serves as a platform for high-quality studies undergoing double-blind peer review, ensuring global dissemination to scholars, practitioners, and policymakers who recognize innovation and knowledge as economic drivers. It publishes theoretical articles, empirical studies, case studies, reviews, and other content, addressing current trends and emerging topics in innovation and knowledge. The journal welcomes suggestions for special issues and encourages articles to showcase contextual differences and lessons for a broad audience.
In essence, JIK is an interdisciplinary journal dedicated to advancing theoretical and practical innovations and knowledge across multiple fields, including Economics, Business and Management, Engineering, Science, and Education.
