There is the need for firms to engage in R&D collaborations with different partners because these collaborations enable them to acquire new knowledge and technologies thereby increasing their innovation capabilities. These innovative collaborations are known to increase firm’s innovative performance, but the extent of the increase is not known. The main objective of this paper is to empirically examine the mediating role of firm’s R&D collaborations and its influence on their innovative performance. To fulfil this objective, we used the Structural Equation Model and firm-level data from the Eurostat Community Innovation Survey (2010-2012). Our results have demonstrated that firms R&D collaborations was a statistically significant determinant that played a full mediating role in contributing to increase firm’s innovation performance by 27%. Our results have demonstrated that firm’s innovation collaborations rather had a weaker effect on their innovation performance. Additionally, knowledge sources also influenced firm’s collaborations, it had a stronger effect. Conversely, knowledge sources were not statistically significant in influencing firm’s innovation performance, it rather had an unsubstantial effect on innovation performance. ; Važno je da poduzeća uspostave suradnju u istraživanju i razvoju s različitim partnerima jer im ta suradnja omogućuje stjecanje novih znanja i tehnologija, čime povećavaju svoje inovacijske sposobnosti. Poznato je da ovakve suradnje povećavaju inovativne učinke tvrtke, ali opseg povećanja nije poznat. Glavni cilj ovog rada je empirijski ispitati posredničku ulogu istraživačke i razvojne suradnje tvrtke i njezin utjecaj na njihovu inovativne učinke. Kako bismo ispunili ovaj cilj, koristili smo model strukturnih jednadžbi te podatke na razini poduzeća iz Eurostatove ankete o inovacijama u zajednici (2010.-2012.). Naši rezultati pokazali su da je suradnja poduzeća u području istraživanja i razvoja bila statistički značajna odrednica koja je imala punu posredničku ulogu ... |
