H2c – The planning effort is negatively associated with the technological capability of post-incubated TBCs.
These results indicate the promising capability of post-hybridization amplification techniques for enhancing microarray performance.
H1b – The insertion into the technological network is positively associated with the technological capability of post-incubated TBCs.
H1a – The insertion into the financial network is positively associated with the technological capability of post-incubated TBCs.
Supporting the research question, we defined research objective one: "to verify the influence of insertion into financial and technological networks on the technological capability of post-incubated TBCs".
However, hypothesis H2c was not validated, proving that planning effort is not directly associated with the technological capability of post-incubated TBCs.
To achieve this objective, hypothesis H1a and H1b were proposed and validated, proving that both financial and technological networks positively influence the technological capability of post-incubated TBCs.
In view of the above arguments, we hypothesized that insertion into financial and technological networks is associated with the technological capability of post-incubated TBCs, as follows: H1a – The insertion into the financial network is positively associated with the technological capability of post-incubated TBCs.
The value of t = 24.597 > 1.96 and the factorial weight of 0.648 validate H1b, demonstrating that "Insertion into technological network is positively associated with the technological capability of post-incubated TBCs".
To further support the research question, we defined research objective two: "to verify the influence of the planning effort in insertion into financial and technological networks, and in the technological capability of post-incubated TBCs".
According to Fig. 3, we can conclude: The value of t = 13.605 > 1.96 and the factorial weight of 0.389 validate H1a, demonstrating that "Insertion into the financial network is positively associated with the technological capability of post-incubated TBCs".
