摘要
The capability of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to drive and shape markets is one path to competitive advantage. Firms that drive markets do so by leveraging radical and disruptive innovation to shape the needs of current and future customers, thereby altering market structure. In the current study, we find that firms with an entrepreneurial orientation are more likely to develop both driving markets and market driven innovations, while firms with a market orientation are more likely to develop market driven innovations.
