Abstract: Along with the development of inter-organizational networks and innovation ecosystems, the influential factors of knowledge flow in emerging industries have also been shifting from the binary organizational distances to inter-organizational networks. Therefore, from the view of global innovation ecosystem, this paper proposes a conceptual model of the effects of cooperation, competition and complementary networks on knowledge flow in an emerging industry. An empirical study of the global 3D printing industry is conducted based on the panel data from 2005 to 2016. The results show that the proximate competition network, embedded cooperation network and niche complementation network in an emerging industry enhance the international knowledge flow, and the scale-heterogeneity network positively moderates the relationship between proximate competition network and international knowledge flow network.
