摘要:

区域品牌的资产公共性和累积性使驱动区域内的企业参与区域品牌化至关重要,但现有研究尚未对该领域展开深入考察。本研究提出并检验了一个基于资源环境形成的制度压力正向驱动企业参与区域品牌化的预测模型。结果显示,构建与社会期待相一致的资源环境可以形成区域内相应的制度趋同压力,对企业参与区域品牌化具有正向驱动效应。其中,感知竞争者的参与和成功可以形成模仿压力;政府和消费者的资源优势可以形成强制压力;感知区域品牌化的有用性和参与价值则可以形成规范压力。这些模仿的、强制的和规范的制度压力对企业参与区域品牌化具有程度不同的正向驱动作用。

Abstract:

The public ownership and cumulativity of place brand equity would make it crucial to drive firms within a region to involve in place branding. Nonetheless, this area has not been investigated deeply so far in the existing literature. In our study, a predictive model for the resource environment resulting in institutional pressures to drive firm's involvement in place branding is proposed and tested. It is found that developing a resource environment consistent with social expectations can form an institutional environment of a region, which contributes to driving firm's involvement in place branding. Amongst them, perceived competitor's involvement and success can form an imitative pressure, and the resource advantages of the government and consumers can form a coercive pressure. Perceived usefulness and involvement value of place branding can form a normative pressure. These institutional pressures have different driving effects on firm's involvement in place branding.

Key words: place branding, firm involvement, resource-based theory, institutional theory
