Abstract
This article proposes a conceptual framework that explains that the social capital of a
community shapes the innovation performance of small and medium-sized enterprises
(SMEs) through knowledge management within the firm. The study's significance stems
from the unprecedented effort in explaining how community social capital matters in the
innovation performance of SMEs, a departure from previous studies that have typically
examined market-related or hierarchical social capital in the form of formal networks
and directly linked them to a firm's innovation performance without due regard for
knowledge management within the firm as an antecedent of organisational innovation
performance. The aim is to stimulate further thinking and empirical research on the
subject of social capital of a community in the SME and/or entrepreneurial context.
