Abstract
Drawing on the resource-based perspective, we empirically investigate the effects of external and internal sources on innovation performance by focusing on customer input, cooperative networks, and R&D intensity using a sample of Chinese high-tech small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). We find that customer input and cooperative networks have the positive impacts on the innovation performance of high-tech SMEs. R&D intensity positively moderates the relationship between customer input, network size, and innovation performance in high-tech SMEs, and does not serve as a moderator in the relationship between network duration and innovation performance in high-tech SMEs.
