Abstract:  Based on resource and capability theory, a conceptual model for the relation among supplier’s social capital, dynamic capability, and innovation performance is developed. With the data collected from 211 survey samples, this model is tested by using multiple regression method. Result shows that dynamic capability plays a full mediating role between structural and innovation financial performance, structural and innovation growth performance, relationship and innovation financial performance, and cognitive and innovation growth performance. However, it plays a partial mediating role between relationship and innovation growth performance, and cognitive and innovation financial performance.

Key words: social capital, dynamic capability, innovation performance, intermediary role
