Abstract Based on social network theory and double-level network perspective, this study proposes that intra-organization cooperation network’s centrality and structure holes respectively influences organization centrality of inter-organizational network, and the interaction effect of these two factors. 6 029 patents (2003~2017) from unmanned technology field were used for empirical testing. The results show that the centrality of intra-organizational network negatively affects the organization’s central position of inter-organizational network, while the number of structure holes of intra-organizational network has positive influence. The interaction between the two factors has significantly negative influence, which can decrease the organization’s centrality of inter-organizational network.
