Abstract: Innovative high-technology SMEs have become a major influencing factor in the success of any modern economy and they increasingly compete in the globalised world with limited resources.Previous research on SMEs at firm level has always taken into consideration the constraints of the resources that an SME faces and the implications of this on their performance and business growth.SMEs have to develop their own unique skills and capabilities, allocating their limited resources appropriately to be able to respond I would like to acknowledge and express my heartfelt gratitude to my supervisor Dr. Elly Philpott.I am indebted to her forever, for being a pillar of support throughout my PhD journey, which has been a great learning experience in my life, both personally as well as professionally.Her advice and a critical academic debate have always encouraged me to discover new ways of interpreting the available information on the subject.Her unflinching support and unconditional love have kept me going even during the hardest times, resulting in this piece of work.
