微笑曲線之實證研究：以中國上市櫃公司為例
An Empirical Study of Smiling Curve: The Case of Chinese Publicly Listed Firms
摘要
現今因為全球化的關係，企業之間的競爭變得更加激烈，而企業發現可以藉由執行研發活動與行銷活動來提升企業競爭力。微笑曲線的觀念認為研發活動與行銷活動可以創造高附加價值，進而使企業達到永續經營目標，至於製造活動只為企業帶來低附加價值。中國大陸企業以代工聞名，然而中國大陸的高度經濟成長使得其人工成本上升，這種情況使很多中國大陸企業陷入經營困境，因此在中國大陸，微笑曲線受到重視，許多中國學者認為應該依此理念執行企業轉型。本篇研究主要探討中國大陸研發活動與行銷活動對於企業經營績效的影響，並再探討企業經營規模的調節效果，研究期間為2003年至2010年。研究實證結果發現，中國大陸企業執行的研發活動與行銷活動均對經營績效有顯著正相關的影響，至於經營規模，大型企業執行研發活動的效率並未比小型公司有效，但是在行銷活動上就比小型公司有效。研究證明微笑曲線理念正確，建議中國大陸企業應依其理念執行企業轉型，以達到永續經營目標，大型公司的研發活動執行效率有待加強。
