Abstract

This study seeks to explore the mediating technology commercialization in the relationship between network types and business performance. Building on literature regarding technology commercialization and networks, hypotheses are developed and tested using 221 samples collected from Korean small- and medium-sized enterprises which operate in the Green Information Technology sector. Results reveal that technology commercialization plays a mediating role in the link. In particular, it is found that the commercialization activity fully mediates the association between network diversity and the business outcome. The findings imply that particular emphasis should be placed on technology commercialization activities in order to bring intensity-based network activities to superior performance.
