2. Theory
and hypotheses 2.1. External search breadth and product innovation Product innovation is a complex problem-solving process that is increasingly influenced by the effectiveness of firms’ external knowledge sourcing strategies. These strategies entail the scouting of knowledge from various economic actors (competitors, suppliers, customers, research organizations, etc.), research opportunities, and public information sources, each of which constitutes a separate search channel that allows companies to tap into relevant market, operational, and technological information (Brown & Duguid, 2001; Laursen & Salter, 2006). In line with this reasoning, many studies contend that external search breadth has a positive impact on product innovation. In fact, the creation and original
recombination of knowledge set the basis to market new products (Katila, 2002; Smith et al., 2005), and external search breadth can sustain this process in several ways. First, having access to knowledge from diverse sources promotes variety, in that novel perspectives and research methods may be introduced into the decision-making process of new product development (NPD) projects (Grimpe & Kaiser, 2010). This helps firms to avoid cognitive myopia (Levinthal & March, 1993) and provides stimuli to engage in creative thinking and adopt new problem-solving approaches, which in turn favor the introduction of products that are sensibly different from the current offerings (Laursen, 2012). Second, companies that invest in broad external searches acquire a number of different knowledge components. As a result, their ability to come up with original knowledge combinations grows. Indeed, a greater knowledge stock may provide more recombination and cross-fertilization opportunities between new and past innovation ideas (Katila, 2002; Wu, 2014). Therefore, because product novelty has been associated with high recombination capabilities (Fleming, 2001), innovative products are more likely to be launched by those firms relying on diverse search channels. Third, when the breadth of external knowledge sources grows, the uncertainty related to the payoff arising from product innovation activities is mitigated because the likelihood to acquire knowledge that is relevant for a firm's product innovation activities is higher than in the case of sourcing knowledge from only a few search channels, thus fostering the launch of new products (Leiponen & Helfat, 2011; Leiponen, 2012). Finally, product innovating companies require both downstream and upstream complementary inputs (e.g., technological, market, manufacturing, distribution, and design knowledge) to recognize the wants and needs in the marketplace, link them with new scientific discoveries, and, ultimately, define the optimal product design (West & Bogers, 2014). Because, by definition (Laursen & Salter, 2006), external search breadth can facilitate the acquisition and recombination of those diverse types of knowledge, it makes firms more able to develop product innovations.
