Abstract With the information explosion and the acceleration of global business innovation in the era of knowledge economy, even the world’s largest and most powerful enterprises will face the constraints of lack of resources. Under the resource constraints, resource bricolage strategy is a concrete resource utilization method under the guidance of jugaad innovation, which plays an increasingly important role in the accumulation of innovative resources and the formation of competitive advantage. Based on the Resource Constructivism View and Composition-based View, from the perspective of unabsorbed slack and exploitation learning, this study explores the relationship between enterprise resource bricolage and inbound open innovation. Based on 176 enterprises of strategy emerging industries from the Pearl River Delta, the research founds that resource bricolage has a significant positive impact on inbound open innovation; unabsorbed slack play as a partial mediator between resource bricolage and inbound open innovation; and the exploitation learning not just positively moderates the relationship between resource bricolage and unabsorbed slack, but also moderates the relationship between resource bricolage and inbound open innovation.
