Abstract
In this paper, we empirically analyze the influence mechanism of innovation performance of relationship strength firms through the panel data of patents and standards of 15 firms in China's OLED industry from 2014 to 2020, using hierarchical regression and bias-corrected percentile Bootstrap method for testing. The findings show that: relationship strength positively affects firm innovation performance; relationship strength positively affects firm innovation performance through the mediating effect of network location; the effect of network location on innovation performance is moderated by technological diversification; the mediating effect of network location is also moderated by technological diversification, and the higher the degree of technological diversification, the stronger the mediating effect of network location. The findings enrich the research on innovation performance and R&D networks, and provide theoretical guidance for Chinese firms to build effective R&D networks and technology diversification strategies.
