The drivers of product innovation performance in Malaysian electrical and electronic industry

In today's dynamic business environment, the flipside to Malaysia's Electrical and electronics (E&E) industry is that it is still very much focused on manufacturing and not expanded to higher value-chain activities such as R&D. The challenge is to leverage emerging technologies to...

This study also examines the successive impact of organizational learning on product innovation performance and investigates whether organizational learning mediates key capabilities and performance relationship under study.
