This study analyze the relationship between firms’ exploration activities and long-term performance by using different industries’ data. We use North America S&;P 500 six different industries’ data from 1998 to 2013 and using System Generalized Method of Moment to analyze. We find in industry which is greeter competition, there is an inverted U-shaped relationship between firms’ exploration activities and long-term performance. This means when firms overinvest resources in exploration activities will decrease long-term performance. As this result, we suggest firms need to balance the investment in exploration and exploitation activities of resources and create ambidextrous organization to achieve better competitive advantage.
