| description | Purpose - There are currently two issues that generate growing interest among specialized scholars within the family business field: technological innovation and socioemotional wealth. While it is true that both topics are highly popular among researchers, the joint study of both perspectives is scarce. Thus, the aim of this paper is to analyse the interrelationships between technological innovation (TI) and socioemotional wealth (SEW) in the context of family firms.
Design/methodology/approach - This literature review systematically analyses the findings of 25 journal articles focusing on TI and SEW, published between 2012 and 2018.
Findings - The findings reveal an integrative approach, identifying different variables that relate TI and SEW. A conceptual framework is built in which these variables are incorporated into four categories (SEW, TI, moderating effects and performance). New lines of research emerge with the development of a conceptual model and the formulation of 6 propositions.
Practical implications – The conceptual framework can be useful as integrative summary of the factors that family business managers and directors should take into account to be successful in implementing innovative projects and strategies.
Originality/value – The study of TI from the SEW approach has emerged as a fruitful field of research in recent years, but the current knowledge of the role that SEW plays in family firms’ TI is still scarce. This paper contributes to the family business literature by offering a conceptual framework of the SEW-TI relationship and new research avenues that will provide a better comprehension for scholars and specialists for future investigations in the field. |
