Summary:碩士 === 國立高雄應用科技大學 === 人力資源發展系碩士班 === 96 === Abstract The small and medium enterprises of Taiwan need to assimilate and use new knowledge to maintain the competitive capability that can solve the problems, such as lack of manpower, and R&D technology. Knowledge is the most important strategic resource of the organizations, innovative products and processes depends on absorptive capacity and management to integrate specialized knowledge. Under the competitive pressure, the enterprises within Incubation Centers have to drive the innovation by using knowledge and resource. Thus, the paper tends to study the enterprises within Incubation Centers how to use the absorptive capacity and knowledge integration to promote the organizational innovation capability. The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship among structural capital, absorptive capacity, knowledge integration, and organizational innovation capability. One hundred and sixteen effective surveys were received by the enterprises within Incubation Centers. The data was analyzed by factor analysis, reliability analysis, structural equation model, and variance analysis to measure the relationship among the constructs. Results showed that structural capital has a positive influence on absorptive capacity and knowledge integration. Structural capital is not a significant influence on organizational innovation capability. Absorptive capacity and knowledge integration has a positive influence on organizational innovation capability. The mediating effects of absorptive capacity and knowledge integration towards structural capital can positively influence on organizational innovation capability, and the mediating effects of knowledge integration towards absorptive capacity can positively influence on organizational innovation capability. As a result it is suggested that the enterprises cultivate absorptive capacity and knowledge integration to improve the organizational innovation capability with knowledge.
