Purpose
The paper aims to explore the knowledge management and innovative outputs (IO) of university-based technology business incubators (TBIs) funded by the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) in the Philippines.
Design/methodology/approach
The respondents, which included heads, managers, coordinators, and staff, were reached via email using a database. The instrument was generally adopted from various related studies in the literature. Data were analyzed quantitively using partial least squares 芒聙聯 structural equations modeling (PLS-SEM).
Findings
The main findings reveal that the mediated relationship between potential absorptive capacity (PACAP), realized absorptive capacity (RACAP), and IO explained 38.7% of the variance predicted by PACAP and mainly explained by RACAP. Among new organizational antecedents measured, slack resources (SR) and willingness to cannibalize (WC) did not predict PACAP, while tolerance for failure (TF) and external openness (EO) predicted PACAP. Consequently, PACAP and RACAP positively mediated the relationship between significant organizational antecedents and IO. |
