Determinants of Innovation Performance among SMEs: Moderating Effect of Entrepreneurial Orientation

Abstract

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) play a pivotal role in the economic development of countries worldwide. With globalization diminishing the significance of economies of scale, SMEs now have greater opportunities for growth. To capitalize on these opportunities, innovation has become essential for their survival and success. Understanding the factors that drive innovation performance is, therefore, critical for SMEs. This study identifies top management support, employee orientation, and customer focus as key determinants of innovation performance in SMEs. Additionally, it explores the moderating role of entrepreneurial orientation in the relationships between these determinants and innovation performance.
