Abstract: This study examines how financial technology (Fintech) influences firms’ ambidextrous innovation, focusing on breakthrough and incremental innovation, with organizational resilience as a moderating factor. The analysis uses a panel dataset of 23,007 observations from Chinese A-shared companies (2010–2022), addresses endogeneity with instrumental variables, propensity score matching, and the Heckman correction. Results indicate that Fintech significantly enhances innovation, with a greater impact on breakthrough innovation. Organizational resilience magnifies this effect, highlighting its critical role. Robustness tests confirm the findings. The study provides policymakers and managers with insights into leveraging Fintech and resilience to drive innovation in dynamic environments.
