Abstract The international operating activities of Chinese enterprises show obvious ambidextrous characteristics of both exploration and utilization.In order to study the impact of the the balanced and the joint dimension of two internationalization activities on innovation performance,this paper starts from organizational ambidextrous theory and institutional theory,and conducts hierarchical regression on sample data of 403 Chinese multinational enterprises to discover: the balanced and the joint dimension of exploratory internationalization and utilization internationalization have a significant positive impact on corporate innovation performance; the host country regulatory regime has played a moderating role in this relationship.As the level of the regulatory regime improves,the effect of ambidextrous internationalization on innovation performance has increased.The research conclusions provide an empirical evidence for the division of internationalization activities into exploitative internationalization and exploratory internationalization in the field of international business,enrich and refine the application research of institutional theory in the field of internationalization,and have certain practical implications for Chinese multinational enterprises.
