Absorptive capacity theory is a concept introduced by Cohen and Levinthal in 1990 that refers to a firm's ability to recognize the value of new information, assimilate it, and apply it to commercial ends. This theory is based on the premise that organizations need prior related knowledge to effectively assimilate and use new knowledge, which in turn affects their innovative performance in an uncertain environment[2]. The theory posits that organizations have a limited ability to absorb new knowledge, which is referred to as absorptive capacity, and is made up of two main components: the ability to recognize the value of new information (knowledge acquisition) and the ability to use that information to create value (knowledge assimilation and exploitation)
