This study addresses two objectives. First, it examines the effect of knowledge integration capability (KIC) on technological innovation capabilities (TIC), namely process innovation and product innovation, and firm’s strategic performance (SP). Second to investigate the mediating role of product innovation capability in process innovation capability- SP relationship. In terms of objective, the current research is applied. This study was conducted using descriptive – correlation methodology. Simple random sampling (SRS) method was employed to the selection of the samples. The study population consisted of all active pharmaceutical firms in Islamic Republic of Iran. The sample size was 86 pharmaceutical firms. Correlation analysis and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique were employed to test of the research model and hypotheses. Data analysis showed that knowledge integration capability has a direct and significant effect on technological innovation capabilities and firm’s strategic performance. Finding also revealed that product innovation capability significantly affects the relationship between process innovation capability and firm’s strategic performance.

The aim of this study is to evaluate The impact of technological innovation capabilities on innovation performance in Knowledge-Based Firms. The population in this study was manager and employee of Knowledge-Based Firms in Science and Technology Park of Tehran University and the sample size was 126 patients that to obtain this sample size random sampling method is used. The data collection tool in this study was a standard questionnaire and for reliability Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used. Present study is an applied research in terms of purpose and in terms of data collecting way it is considered as a descriptive survey. Structural equations modeling was used for examining of considered model. Finding in this paper show strategy planning, R&D, resource allocation, Marketing and learning capabilities can significantly improve the innovation. R&D and resource allocation capabilities can also significantly improve new product introduction. While Manufacturing and Organizing capability is not affect significantly on innovation performance in Knowledge-Based Firms in Science and Technology Park of Tehran University.
