Abstract
However, according to the OECD Review of Innovation Policy in 2013, Malaysia has yet to enter a stage of innovation-led growth in terms of economic development and the country business research performance has not significantly improved in the last decade. This phenomenon suggests that some sources of innovation should be examined in order to successfully promote innovation-led growth amongst SMEs in Malaysia. Therefore, this study aims at developing a constructive framework to examine the relationships between sourcesible innovation and firm performance in order to help local SMEs to design proper strategy for better firm performance in the future.
Keywords: Innovation, Firm Performance, SMEs
