Sažetak
Drawing on signaling theory, peer effect, and the awarenessmotivation-capability (AMC) framework, we examine the role of
strategic emerging industries (SEI) firms in raising the awareness
and motivation of non-SEI firms’ R&D activities, including gaining
government R&D subsidies and adopting internal R&D investment, while considering the moderate effect of non-SEI firms’ capability factor. Based on the data of Chinese listed firms from SEI
and non-SEI, the empirical results reveal that (a) the number of
SEI firms funded by government R&D has an inverted U-shape
relationship with the amount that non-SEI firms gain from government R&D subsidies, and has a positive relationship with the
investment of non-SEI firms on internal R&D. (b) The financial performance of SEI firms funded by government R&D motivates nonSEI firms to gain government R&D subsidies and invest in internal
R&D. (c) These relationships are strengthened by the relative scale
of the non-SEI firms.
