Dataset for the study of the relationships among business model innovation, open innovation, agility, and export performance

The data comes from research analyzing the effect of business model innovation on firms' export performance and, also, the role of organizational agility and open innovation as antecedents of business model innovation. The population in this study was comprised by 1518 Spanish exporting manufacturing companies, and the final valid sample included 196 companies. To collect the data, a telephone survey was conducted using a questionnaire designed based on the literature review. PLS was used to assess the reliability and validity of the measures and to test the structural model. The results showed that the measures meet the general criteria commonly accepted by the literature, which makes them suitable for conducting replication studies. Moreover, the data can be used to go further in the study of the relationships between business model innovation and export performance and to clarify the determinants of business model innovation by considering the different dimensions of that variable, to examine some group-specific effects and to test whether some characteristics of the firms in the sample may moderate the relationships between the variables mentioned above. Since business model innovation is crucial in todays<acute accent> turbulent markets, a better understanding of its antecedents and its impact on firms<acute accent>export performance can help guide managers in their decisions.
