Abstract: After almost twenty years of internationalization, Chinese firms have demonstrated their ability to benefit from both international linkages and indigenous efforts in product and process innovation. However, how Chinese firm innovation is facilitated at the international and domestic levels remains to be understood. This article provides an overview of our special issue, exploring this important topic of global networks and innovation in China. Through five empirical studies employing a variety of research methods (e.g., case study, secondary data, survey, and fuzzy-set analysis), we present some recent research on balancing and manipulating internal and external networks to enhance Chinese firm innovation. These selected articles contribute to the field of networks and innovation in China. We hope these articles play a role in encouraging further research on this important and interesting field.
