  • Abstract
    Product innovation is of great importance to new firms. However, there is no a consensus on its effects on firm performance. In this paper, we introduce two kinds of approaches to tackle this issue. One is decomposing the construct of new product. The other one is introducing contingent factors, including technical and application knowledge from demand side and environmental factors. Our results are a series of propositions upon these considerations.
