Abstract
The study proposes a conceptual model of the phenomenon of a radical innovation partnership and examines particular partner attributes affecting its performance. Borrowing from the paradox perspective in organizational studies, the model argues that a radical innovation partnership features several paradoxes-the paradox of a partnership structure, the paradox of partnership resources, and the paradox of partnership processes-and that particular partner attributes affect the competing demands within each paradox. The study further argues that contribution of each partner attribute is specific and differentiated. Deficiency in any attribute leads to imbalances across the paradoxes and less than optimal performance.
