This chapter attempts to argue that a deep and broad KB leads to better GI outcomes. In addition, the theoretical model proposes that firms that invest and involve themselves in RL mechanisms are more likely to indirectly foster GI. Also, we argue how cooperation among firms that occurs through networks or supply chains stimulates the RL mechanisms, eventually affecting the innovation.

We also analyse the moderating role of organizational size on these previous relationships. The hypotheses proposed in our research model are tested on a sample of 140 Spanish industrial companies, applying variance-based structural equation modelling: partial least squares. In order to assess the moderating effects of organizational size, we adopt a multi-group approach using two subsamples with large firms and small and mediumsized enterprises (SMEs). Our findings indicate that organizational learning partially mediates the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and performance and fully mediates the link between learning orientation and performance. Likewise, the results reveal that the relationship established between entrepreneurial orientation and organizational learning is more intense for the group of large firms than for the group of SMEs. Moreover, the influence of learning orientation on organizational learning is greater in SMEs than in large firms.
