Abstract :
Firm network is an important source of technology innovation and enterprise upgrading. However, the existing researches ignore to explore technology innovation mechanism from a common perspective of network competence and network power. The relationship between network competence and network power as well as their interaction effect on technology innovation are studied. An empirical research is conducted by using effective data from 233 manufacturing companies in China, and the results show that network strategic competence, network operational competence and network relational competence have distinct positive impacts on technology innovation. Further more, Knowledge power has positive moderating effect on the relation between network strategic competence, network operational competence and technology innovation. Structure power has positive moderating effect on the relation between network operational competence, network relational competence and technology innovation.
