Abstract: In the inter-organizational network, network position reflects the ownership and control of resources and knowledge by enterprises. It is of great significance for enterprises to acquire resources needed for innovation through the alliance with central network position enterprises. Based on the theory of enterprise network and the theory of resource dependence, and from the perspective of network embeddedness, this paper constructed 247×247 Chinese computer industry inter-organizational network through the 2013-2017 years cooperation data of this industry to explore the effect of position asymmetry alliance on firm innovation performance, and further explore the moderating effect of absorptive capacity and organizational learning mode on the above relationship. The findings are as follows:firstly, position asymmetry alliance contributes to the improvement of enterprise innovation performance. Secondly, absorptive capacity has a positive moderating effect on the relationship between position asymmetry alliance and corporate innovation performance. Finally, the more the organizational learning mode tends to explore, the more obvious the effect of position asymmetry alliance on enterprise innovation performance. The study reveals the inherent impact of position asymmetry alliance on enterprise innovation performance, and has a certain reference value for the realization of enterprise innovation performance.

Key words: network relationship construction, position asymmetry alliance, Innovation performance, absorptive capacity, organizational learning mode
