The constant dynamism of the market forces companies to prepare and acquire knowledge and manage it properly, which in turn will allow them to achieve higher levels of modernity, stability, and solvency, thus improving their chances of survival. In this research paper, we aim to investigate the relationship between Knowledge Transfer and Entrepreneurial Orientation in light of the mediating role played by the Transactive Memory System. The Transactive Memory System is a variable that has been very little studied and understood, but which requires greater attention because it constitutes a common knowledge platform that is encoded, stored, retrieved, and exchanged among the members of the organisation to obtain specialised knowledge in the performance of tasks. To this aim, we use structural equation modelling and further analyse the mediation effect with alternative tests in a sample of 206 manufacturing MSMEs in Ecuador. Among others, the results indicate that the Transactive Memory System exerts a total mediation role between Knowledge Transfer and Entrepreneurial Orientation. Theoretical contributions and practical implications are discussed.

市场的持续活力迫使企业准备、获取知识并对其进行适当管理，这反过来又将使它们实现更高水平的现代化、稳定性和偿付能力，从而提高生存机会。在这篇研究论文中，我们旨在根据交互记忆系统发挥的中介作用来研究知识转移与创业取向之间的关系。交互记忆系统是一个很少被研究和理解的变量，但需要更多的关注，因为它构成了一个公共知识平台，在组织成员之间进行编码、存储、检索和交换，以获得该领域的专业知识。任务的执行情况。为了这个目标，我们使用结构方程模型，并以厄瓜多尔 206 家制造业中小微企业为样本，通过替代测试进一步分析中介效应。其中，结果表明交互记忆系统在知识转移和创业导向之间发挥着全面的中介作用。讨论了理论贡献和实际意义。
