Abstract

The purpose of this study builds on a core competency perspective to examine the relationships among firm-specific advantages, product innovation capability, and innovative performance. This study propose that the role of product innovation capability is different in the relationships between two dimensions of firm-specific advantages (R&D orientation and marketing orientation) and the innovative performance. Regression analysis was used to test the hypotheses in a sample of 150 new product development cases. The empirical findings indicate that product innovation capability positively moderates the relationship between marketing orientation and innovative performance while R&D orientation affects the innovative performance primarily through the mediating effects of product innovation capability. Managerial implications and future research are discussed.
