Therefore, evaluation method of KIC is a hot topic in recent years. Although dynamic comprehensive evaluation of KIC is urgently needed to develop, researches have rarely taken it into consideration. In order to grasp the whole situation of KIC in consecutive multi-periods, this study proposes a new research on dynamic comprehensive evaluation model of enterprises KIC. First, based on the niche theory, KIC of enterprises consists of the niche-occupying capability, the niche-adapting capability and the niche-evolving capability. Each capability is further divided into more detailed elements and also an evaluation index system of KIC is proposed. Also, the proposed state evaluation model is used to describe KIC development state in a view of integration, while the trend evaluation model can represent KIC development trend by considering the change speed of KIC. Based on the above, a dynamic comprehensive evaluation model is constructed by syncretising KIC development state and trend. Moreover, a computing example is pulled into to illustrate the feasibility and availability of dynamic comprehensive evaluation model from the empirical perspective. This study is expected to be helpful for enterprises to evaluate their knowledge innovation capabilities from a dynamic perspective.]]>Cairo, O. and S. Guardati,20123981088114Esterhuizen, D., C.S.L.
