Abstract

The realization path and mode selection issues for the duality innovation of the scientific small and medium enterprises (SMEs) haven’t obtained a good settlement in China. With the questionnaire investigation and layered regression analysis for 292 scientific SMEs, this paper carried out researches on the realization path and mode selection for the duality innovation for scientific SMEs. The results show that relying purely on the interior path and correspondent paths to realize the duality innovation has no significant lifting functions for the enterprises’ performance, relying purely on the exterior paths and correspondent modes to realize the duality innovation will pose harms to the enterprises’ performance, and by taking the interactive paths between the interior path and exterior path to realize the duality innovation has significant lifting functions for the enterprises’ performance. The duality innovation mode with the interior development innovation and the exterior exploration innovation under this path is lifting the enterprises’ performance to the greatest extent.

Highlights

  • The scientific small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are one of the engines for the national innovation and the supporting strength for our country to establish the innovative country

  • With the questionnaire investigation and layered regression analysis for 292 scientific SMEs, this paper carried out researches on the realization path and mode selection for the duality innovation for scientific SMEs

  • Paths for data collection: 1 390 copies of questionnaires were granted to 39 enterprises in the national center cities as Chengdu city of Sichuan Province, Mianyang City, the scientific city of China and Deyang City, and 317 were recycled, with effective questionnaires of 295 copies. 2 341 copies of questionnaires were issued to 3 partners of the 39 enterprises above, 211 were recycled, with effective questionnaires of 193 copies

Summary

Introduction

The scientific SMEs are one of the engines for the national innovation and the supporting strength for our country to establish the innovative country. Song technological service life and the fiercer competition home and abroad have got the balancing between the developing and explorative innovation to be the strategic topic influencing the survival and development of the scientific SMEs [1] For this matter, the duality organization proposed the duality innovation that merges the development and exploration to solve this problem, which obtains the supports of large quantity of researches [2]. Based on the literature review, this paper summarized and formed the realization paths and correspondent modes for duality innovation It carried out analysis on the differential influences posed by the different paths and modes on the scientific SMEs, proposed the premium paths and modes hypothesis. With the investigation data from 292 scientific SMEs, this paper carried out the empirical testing and concluded on the reflections from practices
