Popis: | Research on the contribution of patents to firm success has typically focused on patent characteristics like scope and family size of patents. This study adds a new perspective to this approach by considering a management variable in our analysis. In particular, we demonstrate that (1) the development of firm-level entrepreneurial orientation is fostered by patents and (2) an entrepreneurial orientation is necessary to convert the economic value inherent in patents into customer value. The patent-to-success relationship is mediated by the firm's entrepreneurial orientation. |
