The study applies the lens of resource orchestration theory to examine the nature of the relationship between technological competence and product innovation in new technology-based firms, and the moderating effects of the entrepreneur's political competence and prior start-up experience. Drawing upon a sample of 100 young technology-based firms, the results show that technological competence has an inverted U-shape relationship with product innovation, suggesting that returns to technological competence are increasing up to a crucial threshold level beyond which additional gains for innovation are decreasing. Political competence and prior start-up experience strengthen the positive effects of technological competence on innovation, with these abilities of the entrepreneurs increasing the optimal levels and innovation returns from technology competence. The results point to the level of technological competence and entrepreneurial competences as key contingencies that influence resource orchestration efficiency in the context of new venture innovation. These findings add to the burgeoning effort to advance research on resource orchestration at early stages of development of the firm, contributing to a deeper understanding of technology choices for value creation under conditions of limited resources and varying levels of individuals' orchestration capabilities.

技术能力对基于新技术的公司中产品创新的非线性影响:资源编排以及企业家政治能力和先前的创业经验的作用

该研究使用资源编排理论的视角来检验新技术型企业中技术能力与产品创新之间关系的性质,以及企业家的政治能力和先前的创业经验的调节作用。从100家以技术为基础的年轻公司的样本中得出的结果表明,技术能力与产品创新之间呈倒U型关系,这表明技术能力的回报正在上升到一个关键的门槛水平,超过这个门槛水平,创新的额外收益就会增加。减少。政治能力和先前的创业经验增强了技术能力对创新的积极影响,企业家的这些能力提高了最佳水平,技术能力带来了创新回报。结果表明,技术能力和企业家能力的水平是在新企业创新的背景下影响资源编排效率的关键偶然性。这些发现增加了在公司发展的早期阶段进行资源编排研究的迅速开展的工作,有助于更深入地了解在资源有限和个人编排能力水平不同的条件下创造价值的技术选择。
