The impacts of entrepreneurial orientation on performance present important research, however, theoretical gaps were identified. This essay intends to fill these gaps, proposing an integrated model in Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) that combines entrepreneurial orientation, absorption capacity, ambidexterity, innovative performance and performance. We advocate a framework that integrates all five buildings. We also suggest that the model be tested using structural equation modeling. By filling the theoretical gap, the visualization of the proposed theoretical model encourages MSEs to improve their entrepreneurial orientations, aiming to capture external knowledge to innovate their actions, aiming at a better performance.

The purpose of this study is to present a model that describes the general influence of technological capability, social capital, entrepreneurial orientation on firm performance through absorptive capacity in the food and beverage packaging industry in Indonesia which is tested with a structural equation model by processing data from 168 respondents. This study found that technological capability, social capital and absorptive capacity have a positive and significant effect on firm performance. Meanwhile entrepreneurial orientation has a positive but not significant effect on firm performance. Absorptive capacity partially mediates the relationship between technological capability and social capital on firm performance and absorptive capacity fully mediates the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation on firm performance.

The purpose of this study is to present a model that illustrates the general influence of technological capability, social capital, entrepreneurial orientation on firm performance through absorptive capacity in the food and beverage packaging industry in Indonesia. The model proposed in this study was tested with a structural equation model. This study processed data from 168 respondents of manager-level employees to the company owner level in the food and beverage packaging industry. This study found that technological capability, social capital and absorptive capacity have a positive and significant effect on firm performance. Meanwhile, entrepreneurial orientation has a positive but not significant effect on firm performance. This study found that technological capability, social capital and absorptive capacity have a positive and significant effect on firm performance. Meanwhile, entrepreneurial orientation has a positive but not significant effect on firm performance. Absorptive capacity mediates the relationship between technological capability and social capital to firm performance and absorptive capacity fully mediates the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and firm performance. This research model only limits the factors that affect company performance to four main variables, namely technological capability, social capital, entrepreneurial orientation and absorptive capacity. Further research is suggested to use samples in other industries and add other variables such as uncertainty or uncertainty of environmental conditions as moderation variables. The practical implications of this research are that companies need to do three things if they want to get the benefits of entrepreneurial orientation and absorptive capacity to improve firm performance. Further research is suggested to use samples in other industries and add other variables such as uncertainty or uncertainty of environmental conditions as moderation variables. The practical implications of this research are that companies need to do three things if they want to get the benefits of entrepreneurial orientation and absorptive capacity to improve firm performance. The new knowledge gained is very helpful for companies to determine strategies, levels of innovation, proactiveness and high-risk decisions, especially when there is uncertainty in the industrial environment. This study presents the mediating function of absorptive capability tested simultaneously with the variables technological capability, social capital, entrepreneurial orientation is something new from this study compared to previous studies. The findings in this study also provide an additional contradictory list of previous studies on the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and firm performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
