Abstract

This study examines the influence of CEOs' knowledge integration on corporate innovation. We find that CEOs with an initial natural science background are more innovative and bring about greater corporate innovation. Academic and social knowledge integration effects show that CEOs with an initial natural science background who engage deeply in a certain discipline, enterprise, or industry are more innovative and bring more corporate innovation. Furthermore, free and open innovation environments help integrate CEOs' knowledge and improve corporate innovation. We show that dynamic knowledge integration can facilitate entrepreneurship and corporate innovation.
