Impact of Inbound Open Innovation on Chinese Advanced Manufacturing Enterprise Performance

From the perspective of network embedding, this paper deeply analyzes the relationship between corporate absorptive capacity, environmental turbulence, and corporate innovation performance. Based on network embedding theory, knowledge management theory, and research data on advanced manufacturing enterprises in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River in China, this paper uses structural equation modeling for empirical analysis. (1) Environmental turbulence affects firms' innovation performance. When the external environment is highly turbulent, consumer demand can force companies to embed in external network organizations to obtain more heterogeneous resources, reduce the innovation cycle, and improve corporate innovation performance. (2) Network embedding can improve the enterprises' innovation performance through knowledge and value chains. (3) Enterprises' absorptive capacity plays an important role in improving innovation performance. Research shows that an enterprise with a stronger absorptive capacity is more able to improve its innovation performance.
