Unravelling the effects of interorganizational networks
oninnovation in the textile industry. The case of the Valencian
cluster in Spain

cholars have supported the idea that interorganizational knowledge networks are a key factor for firms’ innovation in
clusters. Yet, existing empirical evidence suggests that, while networks can enhance firms’ innovative performance, not all
network linkages influence to the same extent. On this basis, this paper aims to explore in a Spanish textile cluster how
the involvement in business and technical knowledge networks influences textile firms’ innovation. The results reveal the
influence of the firms’ connectedness to the cluster knowledge network on their innovative results, although only in the
case of the technical knowledge network. These findings provide relevant insights for an efficient management of territorial
networks at the firm level and for a better definition of textile clusters’ industrial policies.
