Leveraging firm innovation performance through alliance portfolios in emerging economies: the role of absorptive capacity

Firms are increasingly engaging in alliance portfolios/networks - AP/Nets - to leverage their innovation performance -IP - and thus boost their competitiveness. Most studies, with a few exceptions especially from emerging countries, found a positive relationship between AP/Net and IP, depending on p...
