Abstract

The logistics industry plays a critical role in the global economy, facilitating the efficient flow of goods, services, and information across the supply chain. In today's highly competitive and rapidly changing business environment, innovation has become a key driver of success for logistics enterprises. Innovation enables companies to create new value, improve operational efficiency, and respond to customer needs more effectively. Therefore, understanding the factors that influence the innovation performance of logistics enterprises has become a subject of great interest among researchers and practitioners. One such critical factor is the network capability of logistics enterprises. Network capability refers to an enterprise's ability to effectively leverage its network resources, including internal and external relationships, to achieve strategic objectives. In the context of logistics, network capability encompasses partnerships with suppliers, customers, logistics service providers, and other stakeholders, as well as the ability to leverage information, knowledge, and technology from this network. The objective of this paper is to explore the effect of network capability on the innovation performance of logistics enterprises. By examining the relationship between network capability and innovation performance, the author aims to shed light on the importance of developing strong network capabilities to foster innovation and enhance the competitiveness of logistics enterprises.
