Abstract

Innovation is an indicator for firm performance in economics and management studies, and a firm’s capacity to maintain on-going innovation processes is considered a source of sustained competitive advantage. Since innovation often originates from the ability to effectively exchange and combine knowledge, firms need to acquire new knowledge from multiple sources.
