Abstract

It is an inherent requirement for the high quality development of Chinese science and technology industry to promote the breakthrough innovation of enterprises and eliminate the threat of “bottleneck” technology. This paper focuses on the key minority human capital that promotes radical innovation in enterprises -- the bridging scientist founder, and demonstrates the mechanism of the bridging scientist founder that promotes the digital transformation of enterprises and then improves the systematic innovation ability. This paper constructs a data set of the founder’s personal information to carry out an empirical study on the listed companies of specialized and ultra-new little Giants. The results show that the breakthrough innovation ability of enterprises is stronger when there is a bridge scientist founder; Bridging Scientist Founders further promote radical innovation by driving the digital transformation of enterprises.
