Implication

Conceptual framework reveals how network embeddedness influences innovation, moderated by digital development.

Key Points

  • This study investigates the influence of network embeddedness on enterprise innovation performance in digital ecosystems.
  • Developed a conceptual framework to analyze network effects on innovation performance.
  • Tested six hypotheses using patent data from the ICT industry from 1995 to 2021.
  • Used negative binomial regression to assess the relationship between centrality, structural holes, and innovation.
  • Centrality has an inverted U-shaped relationship with innovation performance.
  • Occupying a greater number of structural holes positively impacts innovation performance.
  • Digital development does not alter the centrality-innovation relationship but weakens the effects of structural holes.
