Coopetition between Small and Medium‐Sized Enterprises to achieve Product Innovation: The relevance of Absorptive Capacity

Abstract

Hoy en día, la innovación es un factor clave para mantener una ventaja competitiva sostenible. Sin embargo, las pequeñas y medianas empresas (PYME) se enfrentan a enormes desafíos para lograr la innovación de productos. La estrategia de coopetición (colaboración entre empresas competidoras) podría ser una forma adecuada para las pymes que desean satisfacer sus necesidades en términos de recursos y competencias para crear y llevar nuevos productos al mercado. Sin embargo, las pymes deben tener un nivel adecuado de capacidad de absorción para aprovechar la coopetición. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo mostrar la importancia de la capacidad de absorción en este tipo de estrategia, mediante el desarrollo de un marco conceptual que resalte el papel diferente de la capacidad de absorción realizada y potencial en la relación entre la coopetición y la innovación de productos.

De nos jours, l'innovation est un facteur clé dans le maintien d'un avantage concurrentiel durable. Néanmoins, les petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) sont confrontées à d'énormes défis pour innover en matière de produits. La stratégie de coopération (collaboration entre entreprises concurrentes) pourrait être un moyen approprié pour les PME qui souhaitent répondre à leurs besoins en termes de ressources et de compétences pour créer et commercialiser de nouveaux produits. Cependant, les PME devraient avoir un niveau adéquat de capacité d'absorption pour tirer parti de la coopétition. Cet article vise à montrer l'importance de la capacité d'absorption dans ce type de stratégie, en développant un cadre conceptuel qui met en évidence le rôle différent de la capacité d'absorption réalisée et potentielle dans la relation entre la coopétition et l'innovation produit.

Nowadays, innovation is a key factor in maintaining a sustainable competitive advantage. Nevertheless, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) face enormous challenges to achieve product innovation. Coopetition strategy (collaboration between competing firms) might be an appropriate way for SMEs which want to fulfill their needs in terms of resources and competences to create and bring new product to the market. However, SMEs should have an adequate level of absorptive capacity to take advantage of coopetition. This paper aims to show the importance of absorptive capacity in this type of strategy, by developing a conceptual framework that highlights the different role of realized and potential absorptive capacity in the relationship between coopetition and product innovation.

في الوقت الحاضر، يعد الابتكار عاملاً رئيسياً في الحفاظ على ميزة تنافسية مستدامة. ومع ذلك، تواجه الشركات الصغيرة والمتوسطة تحديات هائلة لتحقيق ابتكار المنتجات. قد تكون استراتيجية التعاون (التعاون بين الشركات المتنافسة) طريقة مناسبة للشركات الصغيرة والمتوسطة التي ترغب في تلبية احتياجاتها من حيث الموارد والكفاءات لإنشاء وتقديم منتج جديد إلى السوق. ومع ذلك، يجب أن يكون لدى الشركات الصغيرة والمتوسطة مستوى كافٍ من القدرة الاستيعابية للاستفادة من التعاون. تهدف هذه الورقة إلى إظهار أهمية القدرة الاستيعابية في هذا النوع من الاستراتيجيات، من خلال تطوير إطار مفاهيمي يسلط الضوء على الدور المختلف للقدرة الاستيعابية المحققة والمحتملة في العلاقة بين التعاون وابتكار المنتجات.
