On March 14th, the Hujiang Economics and Management Forum Series (88th Session) was successfully held at the Lecture Hall of Business School. The event featured a scholarly presentation titled “Dural R&D internationalization and enterprise innovation” delivered by Qingqing Tang, a lecturer in the Department of Business Administration. Faculty and students from the School of Management actively participated in the engaging session.
The relationship between R&D internationalization and firm innovation is a hot issue among entrepreneurs and IB scholars. In recent years, an introduction of the dual perspective brings new opportunities to further exploring the mechanisms and impacts of different types of R&D internationalization on enterprise innovation. Focusing on Chinese manufacturing enterprises, this seminar pays attention to the relationships between dual R&D internationalization, enterprise ownership structure characteristics and firms’ innovation performance. It mainly investigates and answers two scientific questions: (1) How exploratory and exploitative R&D internationalization affect firm innovation, and what’s the difference between these two? (2) How will firms' ownership structural characteristics moderate these effects?
In conclusion, Dr. Ke Wang, a lecturer in the Department of Information Management and Information Systems, offered insightful commentary on the lecture. The event concluded with an engaging discussion among the participants, fostering a deeper understanding of the lecture’s content.
