| Summary: | This paper reports a study of the interdependence of network competence and innovativeness in a product innovation context.

The dimensions of both concepts were validated through a sample of 164 manufacturing Portuguese firms, which provides interesting results concerning the behavior of Portuguese manufacturing companies at the level of network innovation. |
