A Study on Relationships among Institutional Legitimacy Distances, Secondary Innovation, and Open Innovation Performance

Abstract

Abstract:

Incorporating theories of open innovation and institutions and considering the influencing processes of secondary innovation on innovation performance, this paper discusses mechanism of such key factors as open innovation models, institutional legitimacy and so forth. Taking high-tech firms as its research sample and employing Tobit, Poisson Model and Survival Analysis, this study finds that the inbound firms are more likely to choose the secondary innovation, which is negatively moderated by the distance of institutional legitimacy. Furthermore, the moderating effects of the secondary innovation on associations between different innovation models and their performance are opposite. There is a negative moderation on the positive relationship between the inbound model and its performance and there is a positive one for the positive relationship between outbound model and its performance. The conclusions contribute theoretically and practically to the independent innovation of Chinese firms.

Key words: open innovation, innovation models, innovation performance, secondary innovation, institutional legitimacy
