Abstract: Taking autonomous driving technology as an example and on the basis of the resource-based theory and the institution-based theory, this paper constructs an enterprise disruptive innovation R&D alliance network and discusses the relationship between its network characteristics, institutional environment and enterprise innovation performance. The results show that in the field of disruptive innovation, the network density of enterprises in R&D alliance will have a negative impact on innovation performance, while the relationship strength has a positive effect on innovation performance. Institutional environment plays different regulatory roles in the network characteristics of disruptive innovation R&D alliance and the enterprise innovation performance. Although regional innovation investment alleviates the negative impact of network density on innovation performance, it also reduces the positive effect of relationship strength on innovation performance. Intellectual property protection can not only alleviate the negative impact of network density on innovation performance, but also enhance the positive effect of the relationship strength on innovation performance.

Key words: disruptive innovation, R&D alliance, network characteristics, innovative performance, institutional environment
