description | Resource-based perspective was used to relate the technological learning processes and transformative capacity to
technological innovation using a sample of 193 biotechnology R&D teams. Structural equation modeling was used to
conduct confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to evaluate the measurement model, while hierarchical regression analysis
was used to test the hypotheses. As expected, the technological learning processes were positively associated with
technological innovation. Further, the transformative capacity of R&D team was also crucial. The transformative capacity
is a powerful approach to maintaining, transforming, and reactivating knowledge for biotechnology firms. It positively
moderated the association between external learning and technological innovation. |
