Data of innovation ambidexterity as a mediator in the absorptive capacity effect on sustainable competitive advantage

This data article shows the nexus between absorptive capacity (X), innovation ambidexterity (Y1) and sustainable competitive

advantage (Y2). There are three nexus points between the constructs, namely the direct nexuses of X to Y1, X to Y2 and the

indirect nexus from X to Y2 through Y1. The raw data of 530 selfadministrated questionnaires were obtained from 64 nonvocational

private higher education institutions in the Bandung area of West Java, Indonesia. Data analyzing were conducted using

SPPS and Smart PLS. The data are useful as the data can be reproduced, reused and reanalysed. This data article also opens up

better research opportunities going forward through collaboration with other researchers.
