In the context of resource scarcity, the affiliation of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to strategic networks has emerged as a fruitful path towards knowledge sharing as a reaction to fierce competition and with a view to enhance their innovative performance. In this framework, this paper aims to investigate the influence exerted by a specific relational design (i.e. types of strategic networks) and methodology (i.e. channels and content) of knowledge sharing on SMEs innovative performance.,A questionnaire-based survey with 102 top managers of European SMEs in the industrial field was conducted from June to August 2019 and a partial least squares structural equation modelling technique was used. The database was initially filtered to ensure the adequacy of the sample and data was analysed using the statistics software package SmartPLS 3.0.,The results concluded that the structural model explains 38.5% of the variance in SMEs innovative performance, indicating the positive effects exerted by offline and online and by competitive knowledge sharing on the dependent variable.,The study has both theoretical and practical implications in that it sets out a reference point for the key performance indicators for strategic networks structure, formation and development and, implicitly, for the selection of the most efficient relational design and methodology.,The pivotal originality elements reside in the advancement of a more comprehensive conceptual and structural model combining a two-fold operationalization of SMEs strategic networks (founded on business abilities or on the personality of the partner) and in the investigation of knowledge transfer processes at the inter-organizational levels within a context-centric approach.

中小企业战略网络和创新绩效:知识共享的关系设计和方法

在资源匮乏的情况下,中小企业与战略网络之间的联系已成为通向知识共享的富有成果的途径,以应对激烈的竞争并增强其创新绩效。在此框架下,本文旨在调查特定的关系设计(即战略网络的类型)和知识共享的方法论(即渠道和内容)对中小企业创新绩效的影响。基于问卷的调查,涉及102名高层管理人员在2019年6月至2019年8月对欧洲中小企业进行了工业领域的研究,并使用了偏最小二乘结构方程建模技术。最初对数据库进行了过滤,以确保样本的充分性,并使用统计软件包SmartPLS 3对数据进行了分析。
