Knowledge Spillover, Absorptive Ability and Performance of Firms in High-Tech Clusters

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper shed lights on the effects of knowledge spillover on innovation performance of firms in high-tech cluster. There is more knowledge spillover in clusters than other area. Firms in clusters have higher absorptive ability than firms outside of cluster, there is also interaction between firms absorptive ability and different sources of knowledge stock. Knowledge spillover from cluster internal knowledge stock is more important than that from external knowledge stock.
